Shaw 'Nuff Lyrics

 

I walked down these city streets

Just a lonely man inspired

Hoping God would send the water down

 

To quench this burning fire

 

If I left here for the mountain

 

A monastery man

 

Things are still the same so I remain

To show just who I am

Seen things around me

Bonnie and Clyde

 

Graffiti with no message

 

Doctors medicine and pride

But it doesn't really matter

 

They're blowin' in the wind

On the cover of a magazine

Hallelujah

Babylon is falling

 

Babylon is falling

Hallelujah

Babylon is falling

Babylon is falling

I try to wash my dirty hands

But they won't come off with water

Hoping truth will make me clean and then

Redeem my sons and daughters

Though they're not we're very happy

 

Vast along the nose

That's why I left my memories far behind on nature's road

 

Seems so simple the future's the past

The present are the things we holdin' on to make those last

 

 

But it doesn't really matter
