Lyrics
Deeper Than The Surface
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
In the valley of decision, the ultimate choice is yours and mine
whether we choose material darkness or spiritual light.
You got to look
deeper than the surface.
Don't you judge that book by the cover
you got to look deeper and discover.
Don't you judge this man by the clothes he is wearing
you got to listen what he's saying and observe what he's doing.
In this time of westernized abomination
we need to shed some light on the Father Of Creation.
Show the way to the younger generation
'cause that's the only way they could know their destination.
Yes we are breaking down negative barriers!
We are digging out the roots.
Yes we are breaking down negative barriers!
Now is the time to reveal the truth.
Yes we are breaking down negative barriers!
So we can set Jah children free.
We are breaking down negative barriers!
Until we reach that destiny.
You got to take a look, you got to take a look
it's the only way you'll find your destiny is if you look.
Well how you gonna know if you never take a look
if you never take a little look deeper than the surface.
