Jacques or JAH - PROMISE LAND Lyrics

Can I tell you bout my life?
Can I tell you how I'm living and
Can I tell you bout the knife
Made a cut deep in my system

Can I tell you bout my heart
Can I tell you about my visions and can I make you my one mission
I wanna lead you to the sea

God gave the power to part the red sea
God gave the power to make you all see
God gave the power of life to the man
God gave the power to lead you to the

The Promised land,
Can I take you there?

I been on the brink of death,
I been had nothing left but a bible and hope that I'll soon get rest,
From the hell of this world that I'm living in, no more innocence

In a sense,
The human experience
Is the reason that no one special
We following God, but we don't just do it to hide from the devil

I love when I elevate, and bring culture together in several ways
Big appetite, so of course it's a bunch of plates
Handsome, so of course it's a bunch of dates
Step out, and I'm noticing something strange
Our youth, is a victim to social change
Headshots don't depend on who you hate,
But who you debate and who you relate to

Old slave hymns with a brand new face
And that old lil girl bought a brand new waist
And she left her man, bought a brand new lace
And she hit the club in a brand new place

Brand new cases of way back rape
I'm not claiming that they be fake
But i know bout the lies and feds and the social events that they've probably orchestrated

Uh, huh
Can I take you there
Uh, huh
Can I take you there

Open your eyes, let what is seen be seen
Let all that feels be felt
Let all that makes a sound be heard
Let everything that is be that

Uh, huh
Can I take you there

God gave the power to part the red sea
God gave the power to make you all see
God gave the power of life to the man
God gave the power to lead you to the

Uh, huh
Can I take you there

I know what it is, what it's not, and it's nothing new
I can see the outcasts of culture get comfortable
I don't come in hate, not in lies, but I come in truth
You can choose to take it, or die man it's up to you
