Buju Banton - Murderer lyrics
[Buju Banton - Murderer lyrics]
Murderer! Blood is on your shoulders
Kill I today you cannot kill I tomorrow
Murder! Your insides must be hollow
How does it feel to take the life of another
Yes, you can hide from man
But not your conscience
You eat the bread of sorrow
Drink the wine of violence
Allow yourself to be conquered by the serpent
Why did you disobey the first commandment
Walk through the valley I fear no pestilence
God is my witness and He is my evidence
Lift up mine eyes from whence cometh help
You will never escape this judgement
I tell you, all men are created equal
But behind the trigger it's
A different sequel
Some are murdering people just
To collect medals
Stop committing dirty acts for
The high officials
You could wash your hands until you
Can't wash them any more
It is like an epidemic and
You won't find a cure
Upper class you could be rich
Middle class whether you are poor
Only the righteous won't feel insecure
Have you ever thought about
Your skill getting bored
Drinking sulphur bitters won't be
Bitter like your end
Only God can help you, no family or friend
Don't let the curse be
Upon your children's children
Abednigo, Shadreck, Meshek, Daniel in the dne
Jonah in the whale's belly
But was never condemned
Job with the leprosy
And he still reached heaven
He will do for you everything
He has done for them
Kill I today you cannot kill I tomorrow
Murder! Your insides must be hollow
How does it feel to take the life of another
Yes, you can hide from man
But not your conscience
You eat the bread of sorrow
Drink the wine of violence
Allow yourself to be conquered by the serpent
Why did you disobey the first commandment
Walk through the valley I fear no pestilence
God is my witness and He is my evidence
Lift up mine eyes from whence cometh help
You will never escape this judgement
I tell you, all men are created equal
But behind the trigger it's
A different sequel
Some are murdering people just
To collect medals
Stop committing dirty acts for
The high officials
You could wash your hands until you
Can't wash them any more
It is like an epidemic and
You won't find a cure
Upper class you could be rich
Middle class whether you are poor
Only the righteous won't feel insecure
Have you ever thought about
Your skill getting bored
Drinking sulphur bitters won't be
Bitter like your end
Only God can help you, no family or friend
Don't let the curse be
Upon your children's children
Abednigo, Shadreck, Meshek, Daniel in the dne
Jonah in the whale's belly
But was never condemned
Job with the leprosy
And he still reached heaven
He will do for you everything
He has done for them
