Hollies - Time For Love lyrics

There’s just too many rages

Too many infinite screams at night, we’re living in concrete cages

Another child is doomed, to be torn in his mother’s womb

By the spark of the twelve gauges

Sometimes it seems like I can’t go on, I can’t go on

But when I envision a black man with thorns in his hand

On a crucifix I get strong

Never will I ever let a devil deceive me again (ha!) mislead me

Cause what i’ma hit you with’s gonna hurt (yeah)

Because the flesh is meaningless it remains amongst the dirt

But the soul is uplifted

10-31-67 I’m God gifted

Mc’s are changing it grows like a fungus

Beware of the evil that walks among us, behold

A fallen angel, hark, the rebel

The mark of 6-6-6, the devil

You better beware cause he’s comin behind you

No it doesn’t take long for him to find you

It’s a sneak attack black, he’s gonna smack you

In the form of a rock that’s inside of a capsule

Or maybe in the form of a man

That says to trust me and then begins to shake your hand

But when you examined your hand you learned

You’re alarmed that your palm was disfigured and burned

No no no no, it’s not surprising

Open your book, look to the horizon

Start scoping, open your eyes and strive to

Study the holy qu’ran or read the holy bible

I’m making a getaway, plan it’s gonna be a better way

There’s gotta be a better day

Hmmmmmmm... and now I ask, lord have mercy upon me

And grant me sight, for what I can’t see

For you are the shephard and I shall not want

To front, yes to be blunt, I won’t flunk

For I am blessed with the gift of knowledge (yeah)

Without college, but now let’s shift

Into the specific dimension that we call earth

Where God gave us the gift of birth

Last but not least ephessians 6 tells you to teach the child

Revelation tells about two day swarms, the guns and diseases

Homicides over epidemics and crack vials

Got guns going buck buck buck buck

And when you look up you see a kid got struck

But mentally the blood pours out of the mother’s heart

Cause it hurts to lose to lucifer’s part (mmm, yeah)

Yes, for I have seen the light

That shines bright even in the dark of the night

And I (I) thank (thank) thee (thee)

For constantly watching over me

There are about, four hundred and fifty-thousand homeless without housing

Brothers sharing cells and sharing beds

They can’t seek a job with this hair that’s dread

Sit back and face reality with these lyrics

I hope they can uplift your spirits

(we’re living in the last days, we’re living in the last days)

Cause God made water and trees food man woman

Land fire grass animals clouds and sunrays to shine

On the parents of those twenty-six kids that died last year (last year)

And it’s a shame it’s a crying shame, uhh

Sometimes I felt that I was there

You better get up and wipe to clear your eyes

And get right with the master of disguise
