lyrics

ADAM AND EVE (K LANGLEY)
YOU COME TO THE TABLE AND FREELY EAT OF THE FRUIT I OFFER
DO NOT PRETEND THAT YOU DID NOT CHOOSE
I CAN TAKE ANYTHING BUT A BOWLFUL OF LIES
THEY TASTE LIKE HONEY, COMPARED TO THE WAY YOU DENY THE TRUTH
I GIVE AND YOU TAKE
I DON’T BELIEVE THE STORY YOU TOLD ME
I CAN TASTE WHAT YOU HAVE BITTEN
I SPIT THE PIECES IN MY HAND
YOU MADE ME WHAT I AM IS THE CRY OF VICTIMS
I PRESS AND YOU YIELD
YOU ARE EXPOSED FOR THE ANIMAL YOU ARE
I’M NOT THE WINDOW YOU WANT ME TO BE

AN EYE FOR AN EYE AND A TOOTH FOR A TOOTH
LEAVES YOU BLIND AND UNABLE TO EAT
YOU WILL DIE, IF YOU CHOOSE TO LIVE THIS WAY
I’M NOT THE WINDOW YOU WANT ME TO BE

YOU COME TO THE TABLE AND FREELY EAT OF THE FRUIT I OFFER
DO NOT PRETEND THAT YOU DID NOT CHOOSE
I CAN TAKE ANYTHING BUT A BOWLFUL OF LIES
THEY TASTE LIKE HONEY, COMPARED TO THE WAY YOU DENY THE TRUTH
I PRESS AND YOU YIELD
I GIVE AND YOU TAKE
YOU MADE ME WHAT I AM IS THE CRY OF VICTIMS EVERYWHERE
I GIVE AND YOU TAKE
I CAN TASTE WHAT YOU HAVE BITTEN
I’M NOT THE WINDOW YOU WANT ME TO BE
I CAN TASTE WHAT YOU HAVE BITTEN
YOU MAD EME WHAT I AM…..
I SPIT THE PIECES IN MY HAND
I SPIT THE PIECES IN MY HAND
I SPIT THE PIECES IN MY HAND
I SPIT THE PIECES IN MY HAND
I SPIT THE PIECES IN MY HAND
ISTAFA

about

BABAL image

BABAL England, UK

One speaks and a thousand misunderstand
where millions are silent and a thunderous applause erupts
where chatter overwhelms humility and gossip destroys worlds
the tongues wag, the ears flap and the mind creates a wall
everything has been said but no one has understood
talking with conviction and concluding that knowledge is easy and effects a multitude of expanding smokescreens around truth ... more
