James Byrd - Heaven on Their Minds 歌词

My mind is clearer now
At last - all too well - I can see where we all soon will be
If you strip away - the myth from the man
You will see where we all soon will be

You've started to believe the things they say of you
You really do believe this talk of God is true
And all the good you've done - will soon get swept away
You've begun to matter more - than the things you say,

Listen Jesus - I don't like what I see
all I ask is that you listen to me - and remember
I've been your right-hand man - all along
You have set them all on fire
They think they've found the new Messiah
And they'll hurt you when they find they're wrong
Nazareth your famous son - should have stayed a great unknown-
like his father carving wood - He'd have made good
Tables, chairs and oaken chests would have suited Jesus best
He'd have caused nobody harm - no one alarm

Listen Jesus, do you care for your race?
- Don't you see we must keep in our place?
We are occupied - have you forgotten how put down we are?
I am frightened by the crowds
for we are getting much too loud
and they'll crush us if we go too far - if we go too far

Listen Jesus to the warning I give;
Please remember that I want us to live
but it's sad to see our conscience weaken if we don't free our own
All your followers are blind - too much heaven on their minds
It was beautiful, but now it's sour
Yes it's all gone sour - all gone sour
won't you listen to me? Jesus... Jesus
