Not The Flesh Lyrics - Singles - Shelter

Based on pigment a war begins 

We've got two souls wrapped in different skin 

Won't take it back it's a fact 

No one can win 

C'mon you can see the shape the world is in 

And what's the fate of our state 

That never learns from past mistakes 

Can you estimate? 

You better pray everyday 

The dam don't break 

I say hey you better pray 

It's not too late 

And mention the tension isn't pretty, 

You can feel it in the city 

You've got to watch your back expect attack 

I always feel like I'm ready for combat 

Yes yes we're spirit souls within this world 

And I know that I'm free, 

And I know that we're ready for a modification 

Yes yes I'm convinced we're not this flesh 

Can you hear what I'm saying? 

Yes yes I'm convinced I'm not this flesh 

Can you hear me? 

Ignorance of identity we've created enmity 

Denigration of a civilization 

And that's our explanation 

When it all falls down 

Our bloods both red when blood is shed 

I've heard the news there's one more dead 

Just see the way that we've been bred 

We've lost ourselves 

And we've lost lost our identification 

And it's evil the people live in fear 

You can feel it in the air 

It begins thinking 

We're skin which overlooks what we're within 

So why disgress? 

This simple point will cause so much distress 

Don't rate me hate me deprecate me 

Or be ready for the ramifications 

Watch the city crumble humbled 

They don't even know 

What slapped them in the face 

We've got to instigate 

And educate a spiritual solution 

And we won't sit we won't conceal 

Beacuse many feel the way I feel any 

Many want this earth to heal 

I've got a voice of an entire generation
