Message From The Meditations

Good Lord, can't you see them?
Oooh
Open your eyes my brothers (check it out)
Look into yourself my brothers (check it out)
Look into yourself my sisters (check it out)
Can't you see we have been tricked, my people?
Can't you see we have been tricked? Yeah-oh
The Chinese not fighting (check it out)
The white men not fighting (check it out)
The Syrians not fighting (check it out)
Nor the Indians not fighting
It's only we who have been fighting
And it's only we who have been dying, yeah
Say who is behind this? (Mr. Big Shot)
It must be a big spratt (Mr. Big Shot)
Say who is behind this (Mr. Big Shot)
I want to know who is behind this, Lord
I want to know who is behind this, yеah
Good Lord, can't you see them? Oooh
They are dеstroying their own brothers
For what, I just can't say
Only be 'betters' and 'highers' (ah true)
Making the poor more poorer (check it out)
And making our numbers more lesser (ah true)
Can't you see we have been tricked, my people?
Can't you see we have been tricked? Yeah-oh
The Chinese not fighting (check it out)
The Syrians not fighting (check it out)
Nor the white men not fighting (check it out)
The Indians not fighting
It's only we who have been fighting
And it's only we who have been dying, yeah
Good Lord, can't you see them (check it out)
(Check it out) Rebuke them, oh Lord
(Check it out) They are destroying their own brothers
(Check it out) For what, I just can't say
(Check it out) Check it, check it out my brothers
(Check it out) Check it, check it oo-oo-ut
(Check it out) Tell me what do you see?
(Check it out)
