Moment of Truth Lyrics

misery been night and day
finally i found my way

from ina the cradle
the lessons that we learn
make us willing and able
now the future got to be earn
be concern
make sure you take the right turn
full time aware of all the bridges that you burn
giving and taking
the moments we don't share
what is in the making whole leap of
envy grudge and fear
don't you care
history repeat right here
now you drowning in the river of tears

open all your windows and your doors
cause we nuh go live the lies no more
nowhere we reaching
with the things that you teaching
a moment of truth for sure

you laughing when we talk of it
as if you're not a part of it
you wheeling and dealing
but that's not even the half of it
back to the beginning
make we speak about the start of it
to manifest intension we need to see the heart of it
talk bout democracy with all your diplomacy
it's just a fallacy this is false reality
but me nuh go make it get to me
the truth about the truth now i can see it's just hypocricy
the wind blows from a far
bringing overstanding ain't no changing
we are what we are
it's not a must we nuh fi spar
but always make dem know say we and babylon a war

open all your windows and your doors
cause we nuh go live the lies no more
nowhere we reaching
with the things that you teaching
a moment of truth for sure

how long you able to hold da tension
underrate depression ina different dimension
excuse me please could i get your full attention
maybe we could benefit from the
words we mention
can't you see say that the signs stand
for a change again
this is up to me and you to rearrange again
every tribulation passes
pump up the music and mobilize the masses
