intro
Jeru The Damaja (the original)
Chinese Man (holdin' it up)
Morning Sun the re-do (the re-do)
I've learned so much in my travels all over the world (for real)
Come to appreciate life more, life is beautiful (lovely)
From the ghettos of East New York (the ghetto)
To globe trottin' (all over the world)
verse
Life, lessons, curses and blessings
I sit back, ponder the universe's greatest questions
What if we were judged by our heart's orientation?
Not, sex, complexion, religion or nation?
chorus
Depression, recession, obsession
Where is God? You think blasphemous I'm asking this question
Transgression, suppression, regression
A little suggestion, some self-reflection
Aggression, obsessions, possessions
Where is God? You think blasphemous I'm asking this question
Can I make a little suggestion, I think the answer's in self-reflection
verse
I contemplate, why do we hate?
Is evil cultivated or a sin of my friend innate?
People pray for iconic escape, God's return date
Until then what's the world's fate?
verse
Could we live in harmony without the threat of hell?
Or do you go to heaven for dying in 9/11?
Poverty, corruption, over-consumption, mass-production, mass-destruction
Is survival our only function?
verse
If the world so cold then what's the purpose of a man's soul?
What's a man true goal? Is it to eat good, have sex and collect gold?
Little children suffer horrors untold
All across the globe, mothers are raped, their babies are sold
Could different cultures live as one?
These are questions I ask when I sit under the mourning son
chorus
Depression, recession, obsession
Where is God? You think blasphemous I'm asking this question
Transgression, suppression, regression
A little suggestion, some self-reflection
Aggression, obsessions, possessions
Where is God? You think blasphemous I'm asking this question
Can I make a little suggestion, I think the answer's in self-reflection
chorus
Depression, recession, obsession
Where is God? You think blasphemous I'm asking this question
Transgression, suppression, regression
A little suggestion, some self-reflection
Aggression, obsessions, possessions
Where is God? You think blasphemous I'm asking this question
Can I make a little suggestion, I think the answer's in self-reflection
