Shafiq Husayn - Blind lyrics
[Shafiq Husayn - Blind lyrics]
If you look at the world through my eyes
You would wish you was blind
Cuz you'd see misery
If you look at the world through my eyes
You would wish you was blind
Cuz you'd see poverty
If you look at the world through my eyes
You would wish you was blind
Cuz you'd see suffering
If you look at the world through my eyes
You would think you was blind cuz
Ud see not a thing
They say that beauty's in the
Eye of the beholder
Well I behold beauty in the pain of a soldier
I behold beauty in the burden on my shoulders
I behold beauty in my lover when I hold her
And it's a crime when you
Livin with your eyes closed
The truth hurts but don't live
With your mind froze
The cold reality's enough to
Steal your sanity that's the way it is with
The devil spitting fallacy
And you can disagree but you
Can never silence me
The murderous tradition of self
Defense is a tragedy
See I got a strategy I'm waking the world up
I repeat
I am waking all the boys and the girls up
Everybody is a witness
To oppressive conditions
And you don't have to admit it but
I can tell that you feel it
Something's wrong
The world we live in is kinda twisted
I know you hear me but
I really hope you're listening
And you can live in denial of the
Trials that we facing as a nation
As a race, on this planet
Arab world is waking up cuz they
Saw it and couldn't stand it
Giving hope to the rest if we
Fight it then we can manage
One man one voice can't
Fight what's established
I can only spit truth I can only do damage
It's the nature of the caged beast
We will break free and break necks and
Tear it all down piece by piece
We'll build peace, piece by piece
With the same amount of power as
The prayers of a priest
As a roar of a lion, as the bass of a beat
Praise God, praise good
And pray we never see defeat
Gotta start at the beginning
Gotta feed all the children
Cuz we over here chillin'
But the kids steady crying
No food, no mother, when they born
They dying gotta fix the broken system or
At least die trying
You would wish you was blind
Cuz you'd see misery
If you look at the world through my eyes
You would wish you was blind
Cuz you'd see poverty
If you look at the world through my eyes
You would wish you was blind
Cuz you'd see suffering
If you look at the world through my eyes
You would think you was blind cuz
Ud see not a thing
They say that beauty's in the
Eye of the beholder
Well I behold beauty in the pain of a soldier
I behold beauty in the burden on my shoulders
I behold beauty in my lover when I hold her
And it's a crime when you
Livin with your eyes closed
The truth hurts but don't live
With your mind froze
The cold reality's enough to
Steal your sanity that's the way it is with
The devil spitting fallacy
And you can disagree but you
Can never silence me
The murderous tradition of self
Defense is a tragedy
See I got a strategy I'm waking the world up
I repeat
I am waking all the boys and the girls up
Everybody is a witness
To oppressive conditions
And you don't have to admit it but
I can tell that you feel it
Something's wrong
The world we live in is kinda twisted
