Soho Asylum - 21st Century Oracle Lyrics

Ublisher: CD Baby PRO

I need to get stronger
I need to get strong
I need to get stronger
I need to get

I need to get stronger
I need to get strong
I need to get stronger
I need to get

Uh yeah, I need to get stronger
Uh, yeah, I need to get strong
Uh yeah, I need to get stronger
Uh yeah

21st Century is what we're in
And I'm making a din about the world of sin
Yo, forwards or backwards it's hard to tell
Cause the world in which we dwell is like a living hell

Faced with dilemmas everyday
Just to stay in a way that I can get my pay
Yo, should I rob and steal to get a meal
Or work and work until I go berserk

Which will it be wrong or right, right or wrong
Should I just play a guitar and sing a blues song (uh)
Wallow in pity and blame it on the big city
The rush and fuss is so fast it makes me giddy
Compassion is gone and I've now become cynical
Its getting critical, I think I need a miracle
I need the law above the law
To pour more of the strength that the world's waiting for

See am I acting like a human being, in what I'm seeing and saying
Cause they say I'm speaking madness all day and night
That's all right, cause if I'm mad I'm glad to have
A piece of the knowledge that some never had

So you can step in my way cause I won't sway
Cause if you step off the path, you'll feel the wrath
So you go your way while I go mine
And hopefully we'll find the right state of mind

Uh, yeah, I need to get stronger
Uh, yeah, I need to get strong
Uh, yeah, I need to get stronger
Uh, yeah, I need to get strong

Uh, yeah, I need to get stronger
Uh, yeah, I need to get strong
Uh, yeah, I need to get stronger
Uh, yeah

Emotions, what a commotion it causes
Coming from all kinds of sources
See it's a force that causes man to act irrational
So much it's like fashionable

When presented with death some take a deep breath
Curse the whole concept
Why me not him, its to grim to face
Why must this, is this called justice

But what's fair in a land of hate
That's why I got to get my mind straight
To cope with the stress and the strain
And the pain of depression, life's a big lesson

A lesson that some find hard to cope with
There's only so much a man can give
When place in a place where a race
Gives you nothing but grief and strife

Trying to destroy your life and kill your will
But I'm amongst the men who stand still
So stand firm, in times you may get burned
Cause in the battle there are lessons to learn

What goes around comes around
Look who's back in town, the people you put down
You built the mountain that we climb
But will you ever find the right state of mind

Uh, yeah, I need to get stronger
Uh, yeah, I need to get strong
Uh, yeah, I need to get stronger
To cope with the pressure that oppressors are giving me

Uh, yeah, I need to get stronger
Uh, yeah, I need to get strong
Uh, yeah, I need to get stronger
To cope with the pressure that oppressors are giving me

Uh, yeah, I need to get stronger
Uh, yeah, I need to get strong
Uh, yeah, I need to get stronger
Uh, yeah, I need to get strong
Uh, yeah, I need to get stronger
Uh, yeah, I need to get strong
Uh, yeah, I need to get stronger
Uh, yeah, I need to get strong
Uh, yeah, I need to get stronger
Uh, yeah, I need to get strong
Uh, yeah, I need to get stronger
Uh, yeah, I need to get strong
Uh, yeah, I need to get stronger
Uh, yeah, I need to get strong

Uh, yeah, I need to get stronger
Uh, yeah, I need to get strong
Uh, yeah, I need to get stronger
Uh, yeah, I need to get strong
Uh, yeah, I need to get stronger
Uh, yeah, I need to get strong
Uh, yeah, I need to get stronger
Uh, yeah, I need to get strong
Uh, yeah, I need to get stronger
Uh, yeah, I need to get strong
Uh, yeah, I need to get stronger
Uh, yeah, I need to get strong
Uh, yeah, I need to get stronger
To cope with the pressure that oppressors are giving me

Uh, yeah, I need to get stronger
Uh, yeah, I need to get strong
Uh, yeah, I need to get stronger
To free my mind from these chains of misery (Ah)
