Speaking In Tongues
Got the kind of face everybody knows.
Run around barefoot when it snows.
Growin' out your hair 'cos you like it long.
Fighting in the road 'cos you know it's wrong.
People got a thing for the dangerous.
You'll find it inside the best of us.
Taking what they want like it's owed to them.
Other folks do the best they can
Some of us do the best we can!
Brothers! Brothers!
Everybody's speaking in tongues, we gotta speak in love!
Never met a man said he did not try
Running from the truth time again in life.
You can be the poor one, rich or wise,
But all of us know 'bout sacrifice.
Put me in the water, put me in the fire.
Put me in the world and I'll walk that wire.
Seen the people come and I've seen them go.
Talk all day but it's what they
Talk all day but it's what you show!
