Isolation - Meshell Ndegeocello

end the suffering

the meek shall one day inherit the earth

and for those who suffer?

we have no use for ill fated prophets promises

of freedom

of freedom

not needing or wanting anything

that in your hatred you can deprive me of

as i do the time

cleanse your sick mind

as i do the time

cleanse your sick mind

send me

shall overcome

someday

see, uh

when you are awake, i’m asleep

and when you are asleep, i will awake

and i will live neither in this cell

nor in my heart

only in my head

yeah, some motherf*cker told me um

i needed to stop dwelling in the past

deafened by the dissident harmonies

of sick white crackers

and the tyranny of the self righteous

as i live in my desire

for emptiness

hate

is all you see

and in my fear of becoming like you

i gauged out my eyes, damn

you know?

be worried about the man

?

need to worry about themselves

but all this political bullsh*t

be f*cking up my high

and to you?

i am but the offspring of an obsolete machine

but your myth of superiority

would not exist

without me

send me

shall overcome

someday, someday

someday

you prey on the weak to fulfill your lust

and what you perceive as the kingdom of god

is no more than the word of man

and his fear of death

shall overcome

someday

someday

yeah, mmm

see paradise

is the fact that i exist

and i exist

despite you

i exist

i exist

despite you

despite you

rape my women

beat my children

castrate my men

poison my food, poison my body

rape my women

beat my children

castrate my men

poison my food, poison my body

rape my women beat my children

castrate my men

poison my food and poison my body

rape my women

beat my children

castrate my men

poison my food and poison my body.
