Nneka, Black Thought - God Knows Why lyrics

You say you are feeling me
Camouflage killing me
Civilization to the extent of imprisoning me
Freedom is what you speak
Your god, is whom I seek for all you have
You have because someone else grief
Impose your lies on me nothing is left of me
A living dead to function in your own reality
In my head, I picture paradise
Jehovah and the antichrist
These are the end of the days
Your footprints engraved in the pavement
Of a demonic ways
Pump me with your drug, so I can't feel me
Take back all your love
For you have deceived me
You compete with god god knows why
Only god knows why
Oh god knows why God knows why

Black boy like Richard Wright
I am just a product of a
Different type of living life
I am just a public enemy
That don't believe the hype
I am from the jungle
Where some people never see the light
I guess we nocturnal, black fire flies
Might burn you a while I
Serve you with the diatribe
I got this message to to
Deliver to the riot squad
Just to let them know I
Answer to a higher god
Self style, man child in the promise land
Staring like a child soldier on a sonogram
He is in a feeble position
Bow and needle precision
It is destiny it was writen

God knows why only god knows why
Oh god knows why God knows why

Turn the stone into bread
In the wilderness I hunger
Give me more of it for my lust goes far
Eyonda (after life)
I stole the apple of wisdom
I now see I am naked
I have no shame, I have made love
I am no longer sacred
Burn the incense, pray to the
Sun, pay is intense, and so I lie I mourn
What is love, where is love, who is love
Is it god? whatever
Where is god in this world
Of deceit? would we find
Would we ever defeat
The dark is in the heart of mankind
The black in it
