Tell It Like It Is
(chorus)
I jus' a tell it like it is, yeah
I jus' a tell it like it is, oh yeah
I've got to be blatant in this time
Jus' like I know 1 + 1 no make 9 (repeat)
Now what was I saying about being blatant
You got to be blatant in an argument
You got to make sure your feelings are felt
Perfect example for you from me
Watch lying politicians me seh on me t.v.
Pay big big money for the licence fee
(at the same time them a try fi fool we) (repeat)

You got to be blatant me seh
With product you invent
If you don't patent it
You nah see a cent
You have no money fi go pay up your rent
If you crash fi your car
Or you in an accident
If it's not your fault you be blatant
(chorus)
I jus' tell it like it is, yeah
I jus' tell it like it is, oh yeah
I've got ....
Now I get serious about being blatant
Police come and mess with me pon the pavement
They say oi' where you going, what you doing here?
I just leave mi house fi go buy a tin of beer
Another example of being blatant
South africa police a kill the innocent
Fire live ammunition me seh into a crowd
If that's not blatant murder
Then murder can't be found (repeat)
(repeat chorus)

Defective Beliefs
Doesn't it seem we live in those times,
When the experience of living them...
Has become less mysterious.
Who living amongst us today,
Can honestly admit to say...
They have not a clue of what's going on?
Blatant is the disrespect.
Blatant is corruption and theft.
Blatant are those who have and 'have' not.
And 'who' today can honestly say,
They have not been deceived...
By the keeping of defective beliefs.
To continue to lie to oneself,
Would not be advisable to maintain mental health.
Since to do it would prove total insanity.

This Stuff Is Blatant
My observations aren't created.
Rarely embellished are they envisioned.
I see what I see.
And hear what I hear.
Ignoring what is there,
I do not make that decision.
I am one of those probing nosey people.
Wanting to comprehend with a reason,
To question 'why'?
I can be analytical if I wish.
But what I observe...
There is little need for it.
This stuff is blatant!
For open eyes to satiate.
Blatant with a rawness,
Hard for some to digest.
I guess that is why so many folks,
Delude themselves with pretentions.
Preferring lives fantasized,
To moralize what upsets.
This stuff is blatant,
Oh yes.
There in black and white!
But I understand why,
Some choose to camouflage this in disguise.
So much truth conflicts with a resistance to reality.
And reality is much despised.
This stuff is blatant!
For open eyes to satiate.
Blatant with a rawness,
Hard for some to digest.
I guess that is why so many folks,
Delude themselves with pretentions.
Preferring lives fantasized,
To moralize what upsets.

Deep In My Heart
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Oh, oh, I want you for the rest of my life,
Oh yeah
Walking through time looking for an answer
How can it be this way
What have I done, I just cant help but wonder
How everything could change
cause youve turned my world around
Pre chorus: since you came along, no
After this love was found
It seems like we cant go wrong
Chorus: deep in my heart I know theres only you
And right from the start I always knew
Ill never let go cause I love ya so
Oh-oh, I want you for the rest of my life
Some people search what seems to be a lifetime
To find a love like this, oh yeah
And here we are with everything weve wished for
Ive never felt such bliss
Repeat pre chorus
Repeat chorus
Oh, yeah
There comes a chance in everyones life
And I believe it wont happen twice
Now since I felt the glory of love
I wish to spend forever and ever with you

The love not sparking
Man’s love for woman is blatant.
Woman’s love for man is latent.
Blatant or latent, there is love
Between the two opposite sexes.
She puts him blind
By her opaque veil.
Yet he is adept to see through
Little gaps her throbs.
Both lose the battle
Without waging it at all.

Wishing that heroes, they truly exist

Live And Breathe
Ive been waiting for the sky to clear,
To get me out of here
Get me on my way and go
Ive been waiting for a sign to appear
To show me the way to a place Ive never known
All I have are my dreams....
Your love and blind faith
There... in the sky spins a wheel,
Its giving me the feelin that my dream
Came true today
Chorus:
Theres a place... where we two can be together
Once the clouds are gone well both move on
In search of all weve dreamed
Therell come a day...
Blue skies endless and forever
Well, that time has come
Ive found the sun in you, I live and breathe
From the moment that I close my eyes,
Feel the sun it rise,
Hear it echo through my soul
For the first time in this young mans life,
Makes me feel alive
Fills my heart and makes me stronger
All I have are my dreams...
Your love and blind faith
There in the sky spins a wheel,
Its givin me the feeling
That my dream came true today
Repeat chorus
Someplace closer to both our hearts
Somewhere further than where we are
Just as long as theres hope enough
Long as I live and breathe
Repeat chorus
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Expectations Of A Hospitality
Let's make this clear,
Between us.
What you wish to do,
At the expense of my time...
Is not permissible.
I see that as blatant disrespect.
And you might not ever understand this.
But,
You inviting 'your' friends over to my home...
With expectations of a hospitality,
None of you get...
Should not make you upset at all.
Regardless if you did call,
To ask if I minded some company.
'I thought you and I were friends? '
Yeah.
But I'm not prepared to host,
An unexpected party.
Whether it is a 'surprise' one or not.

Im the man who murdered love
Yeah! what do you think to that?
He was begging on his bended knee
For me to put him from his misery
He hadnt worked at all this century
Said i do a job for all humanity

I put a bullet in his sugar head
He thanked me kindly then he lay down dead
Phony roses blossomed where he bled
Then all the cheering angels shook my hand and said...
(repeat chorus)
Oh! its the middle of the song!
Oh! yeah! oh! yeah!
Im guilty! Im guilty!
Im guilty! yeah!
And then I turned and said
Therell be more pain from broken hearts
And no more lovers to be torn apart
Before you throw me in your dungeon dark
You oughta film me putting statues up in every park
(repeat chorus)
So dear public, Im here to confess
That Im the one who freed us from this mess
Love wont be calling at your address
cos youve never had youll never miss, I guess
(repeat chorus)
If you never ever use it
You know youre gonna lose it
If you never ever kiss it
Howre you ever gonna miss it?

Gave you chances
On top of chances
Opportunities taken for granted
My reality is all your exshalities
'Cause insanity
Why you askin me?
Took my kindness
For a sign of weakness
My own blindness
'Cause my sadness
No longer am a slave
Over your madness
I am glad it's finally over

That you seem to like to play
See what you can do for me
Is forget you knew my name
See your qualities are
Less than pleasing
I got more than
One reason for leaving
It's time to close shop
Open new chapters
See new beginnings is
What I'm after
Get your skeletons up
Out my closet
Don't make me lose it
I just might lose it

You're slipping away, away
Slipping away from the live and the love we made
Baby, I'm so afraid
So far, so far, so far
Slipping away, away
Slipping right out of my grasp and you're fading fast
It seems... you know you're slipping away from me
I keep on reaching and I, I keep on trying
But you never even hold me
And it seems like you don't know me baby
I keep on yearning and I
I guess I'm learning that it's just a losing fight
'Cause there's no passion in your eyes
No, no, no, no babe
Yeah-eah

I keep denying that our, our love is dying
But it's all a big charade and it's a fruitless game to play
I can't remember when you, you last were tender
And it's always touch and go
The silence chills me to the bone, yeah

Away, away, away, away
Yeah
Hey, yeah
Further, further
Ooh yeah
You're so far

I try and I try but you're so aloof
Where is the boy that you used to be?
Baby you're slipping away from me)
You're so far

Slipping away, away)
Slipping away from what we had
Truly I just don't understand

Don't think that your charm
And the fact that your arm
Is now around my neck
Will get you in my pants
I'll have to kick your ass
And make you never forget

Thought I liked you a lot
But I'm really upset (I'm really upset)

Get off of my bed, yeah that's what I said
