Reverence Lyrics

Watch me ride...

 Take the words and the bass,

 Taste, and then swallow me,

 You're chasing the devil

 Cos you're level if you follow me

 For quality, and I make no apology

 For linking my thinking with computer technology.

 Cos this is like a modern day hymn

 For the new church,

 I search for the truth,

 I've got a hole in my tooth,

 I'm uncouth, yes sir,

 I'm from the street university

 Where we learn to earn even in times of adversity.

 And I will find it a easy when you're out a hard time,

 Petite crime sometimes,

 But now I'm inclined to find

 A fresh direction, kiss me neck,

 Check out the funky section.

 Cos this is the part where I start to rip up words,

 A comfort coming straight from my heart,

 I'm not a mystic,

 My views are realistic, simplistic,

 One special brew I get pissed quick,

 And get sick so I don't do it no more,

 I won't find peace of mind

 Rolling around on the floor.

 The point I want to make,

 The mistake is to take without giving,

 From within,

 You know how I'm living,

 I'm cool, I'm looking after myself,

 And I could never place wealth before my spirit,

 I feel it's unhealthy,

 The devil creep around you so stealthy, stealthy

 'Till you get bold, rush the gold,

 And before you're much older,

 You're soul is sold, where's it getting ya,

 Competition starts swearing ya,

 Gold-diggers setting you up,

 Soon be forgetting your existence,

 Do you need a for instance,

 I have to admire your persistence

 In sticking to a game plan,

 That brings you pain man,

 And at the end of the day nothing is gained,

 So listen to the voice within,

 I'll see ya later,

 Pay heed to the Grand Oral Disseminator.

 Quite still you feel there's nothing going on

 until you realize the space behind your

 eyes is filling up with something like peace

 as your thoughts cease some pleasure grows in your soul.

 I aint a Christian

 Sometimes I feel like diss'in em

 But listen I'm just trying to tell you what I know

 if you would once relax, chill to the max

 these words on wax will cause sweet bells to ring in your soul.

 If I say God is alive I know you'll want to know why babies die, food don't grow. Why?

 Trains smash, plans crash,

 situation mash and slam bam

 your fellow man - money's in fashion

 it aint rational, because dammit, he didn't just give us the planet

 and its wealth, inside your soul he left a piece of himself, his voice is small

 I keep lying and trying,

 Denying the call from inside

 You can't hide responsibility

 So decide from today just who it's going to be,

 Thou shalt have no other God but me,

 So set you free see,

 But you'll have to listen,

 And who's that false idol

 I see you kissing?

 Money, success and untold wealth, good health

 And all you have to do is love yourself.

 It's a fact you'll attract all the things that you lack,

 So just chill

 And get off the race track

 And take a pace back, face facts,

 It's your decision,

 You don't need eyes to see,

 You need vision,

 Continue to view the lord as being separated

 And you'll be living a lie that's being perpetrated,

 For many centuries, I'm on a mission I want to mention these facts,

 These facts in my rap,

 I don't sing,

 But I want to share the peace that they bring,

 My name is G.O.D.

 The Grand Oral Disseminator.
