Not the flesh


Based on pigment a war begins
We've got two souls wrapped in different skin
Won't take it back it's a fact
No one can win
C'mon you can see the shape the world is in
And what's the fate of our state
That never learns from past mistakes
Can you estimate?
You better pray everyday
The dam don't break
I say hey you better pray
It's not too late
And mention the tension isn't pretty,
You can feel it in the city
You've got to watch your back expect attack
I always feel like I'm ready for combat
Yes yes we're spirit souls within this world
And I know that I'm free,
And I know that we're ready for a modification
Yes yes I'm convinced we're not this flesh
Can you hear what I'm saying?
Yes yes I'm convinced I'm not this flesh
Can you hear me?
Ignorance of identity we've created enmity
Denigration of a civilization
And that's our explanation
When it all falls down
Our bloods both red when blood is shed
I've heard the news there's one more dead
Just see the way that we've been bred
We've lost ourselves
And we've lost lost our identification
And it's evil the people live in fear
You can feel it in the air
It begins thinking
We're skin which overlooks what we're within
So why disgress?
This simple point will cause so much distress
Don't rate me hate me deprecate me
Or be ready for the ramifications
Watch the city crumble humbled
They don't even know
What slapped them in the face
We've got to instigate
And educate a spiritual solution
And we won't sit we won't conceal
Beacuse many feel the way I feel any
Many want this earth to heal
I've got a voice of an entire generation

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
 
The lyrics NOT THE FLESH of SHELTER is also present in the album Mantra (1995)
