Pull them strings with money and things is the world and its ways Still your soul is in your control no matter what they say Love essential stirred up the temple - and I long to see Christianity touching reality like it's called to be Hey hey arise Get up get up Hey hey it's time Get up get up Just ain't funny seeing how money talks louder than pain Europe Asia Australia America Africa the same Wealth demands it, whose are the hands that wring the powerless dry All and sundry feel the need go do something with your life Every day it's 42 000 children pass away Most despicable those from preventable diseases today See how we got the audacity giving God all the blame No good reasons no excuses these are things we could change And if you keep your faith how can you keep your distance These are the signs These are the times These are the things that should open your mind Wake up sleeper These are the days Bear up the light and do what He says These are the signs These are the times These are the things that should go through your mind This state of mind will leave you wide awake If Malcolm had a dream then I guess I am living his vision Praying for my brothers that are locked up in mental prisons See what going on - on the earth I maintain Trying to hack my way out of this matrix mainframe Trying to come to peace with myself is so hard But everyday is a blessing and yes thank God I keep walking past the obstacles hoping I don't fail I am searching for the truth like in the Holy Grail Man I set sail and I'm out there searching for Zion Because I've learnt in this world there's very few you can rely on So I keep to my own and hope He is hearing my prayers Staying true to the art and I rock it like Amadeus 'Cause it's crazy too much sometimes to fathom Thinking how the mechanism of the devil has them Trying to get me too I can sense him right on my back But I am staying true to God like when the angels attack
