Ballad Of Noah Lyrics

I am conflicted

Travelling the path of the soul so gifted

Still unable to break the mold I lifted

Praivailing still could not see

And insisted my existance began with me

Seems that i lost much, lost touch of reality

It costs much, of the soul what a fallacy

This world is at times, I cannot escape

See myself with new eyes, now i'm trying to take

The first step on a path that i know is paved with much difficulties

So i think i must save myself from a world that is falling down

All around me

I hear the sounds of laughter callin' after me, fallin' too fast

My close friends are asking me

Cast and their glance at each other with outstrenched hands

Like they might be a victim of circumstance

But i run

If you reach a dead end trail

Pray to god it never fails.

We've all walked each other's shoes

So everybody sings the blues.

If you reach a dead end trail

Pray to god it never fails.

We've all walked each other's shoes

So you don't have to sing the blues.

Under the sky cross the land with a horse.

It felt like a sky and the land were divorced.

The way it was easy, a rock in the path

So what's the matter with you, and the rock just laughed

Carrying a load for the conscious untoiling

I went to the water and the water was boiling

The load was heavy and rocks filled my course

My horse drank the water and the water killed my horse

I tried to keep going, weeping to me

A righteous wind blew and it was speaking to me

The way seemed harder since my horse been dead

I couldn't understand everything the wind said

Looked up at the sky and seen something strange

Returned to my country and my country was up in flames

The trees were bleeding, they said they couldn't hide me

Where will i run to without my horse beside me?

If you reach a dead end trail

Pray to god it never fails.

We've all walked each other's shoes

So everybody sings the blues.

If you reach a dead end trail

Pray to god it never fails.

We've all walked each other's shoes

So you don't have to sing the blues.

Just like king midas turned things to gold

I touched my soul and felt my warm blood turn cold

I was told we paint the picture we want to see

The dream, she's the woman, i'm a machine

Jacaline is my mother, but i don't ask this

Wearing sunglasses taking me to pray on sunday

Not one day, but three, we attended the church

Watch my father get up, grab the bible, and then work

The scripture, get the picture

Preacher in my blood

And people in my hood, no bet of attack

Just a jean jacket and an caught up from the fact

From a ecclesiastic kid who was afraid to be black

Imagine that type of ghetto?

It still isn't settled

I play sex pistols and listen to heavy metal

I ate lunch all by myself in a meadow

And healed every scar with wishing to be a star.

Now it's on, so tell me why i sing a sad song?

Who's the pawn, was i being fooled all along.

Not at all. cause now i'm strong.

Innocence deterred, was never gone, i feel it coming, the break of dawn.

If you reach a dead end trail

Pray to god it never fails.

We've all walked each other's shoes

So everybody sings the blues.

If you reach a dead end trail

Pray to god it never fails.

We've all walked each other's shoes

So you don't have to sing the blues.
