If I took away your shelter, put you on the street
|
If I took away your table and chairs, threw away your meat
|
Stole away your wife and child, see how lonesome you would be
|
Is that what it would take for you to listen to me
|
|
If I took away your legs and you could never walk
|
If I took away your words and you could never talk
|
Blinded your eyes and you could never see
|
Locked you up in shackles and you were no longer free
|
Is that what it would take for you to listen to me...
|
|
Listen to me, I am the thunder you refuse to hear
|
I am the Rock you can't hide under
|
You have nothing more to fear
|
This is a time for healing, the scars upon the land
|
My son, listen to me..
|
|
If I gave you a blanket, you could be warm
|
If I gave you a roof to stay under
|
Would that save you from the storm
|
Gave you all the money you could ever spend
|
Do you think that means your troubles would finally end
|
Is that what it would take for you to listen to me
|
|
Listen to me, I am the thunder you refuse to hear
|
I am the Rock you can't hide under
|
You have nothing more to fear
|
This is a time for healing, the scars upon the land
|
My son, listen to me
|
|
I give you the seed dig your roots deep in the land
|
Here's a blade to turn the soil grow somethin' in the sand
|
I give you all me blessings, my blood runs through your veins
|
I will stand beside you, even when it rains
|
My son listen to me
|
|
Listen to me, I am the thunder you refuse to hear
|
I am the Rock you can't hide under
|
You have nothing more to fear
|
This is a time for healing, the scars upon the land
|
My son, listen to me..
