lyrics

"PROPHET IN BLACK"

Got the calling many years ago.
To speak through songs to the souls.
I don't know why it was me,
that the spirit came to see.

I've always loved the Creator,
but I know who I am.
I won't tell you how you should live your life,
I know I'm a sinful man.

[Chorus]

Prophet in Black.

Looking out across America,
I see good people everywhere.
Our generosity must never stop,
we can't ever lose our sense of fair.

I believe in the dream,
but it will take you and me.
To be united on the same side,
we can hold our heads up high.

Prophet in Black,
I've got a job to do,
and that is that.
Prophet in Black.

[Guitar solo]

Saints and sinners shaking hands,
all doing the best we can.
Don't look down on anyone,
we're all sparks from the same Sun.

USA all the way,
look at the price others have paid.
We've got to stand together,
to let freedom reign forever.

Prophet in Black,
but I ain't here to judge no one.
Prophet in Black,
this is a song that must be sung.
Prophet in Black,
I've gotta job to do and that is that.
Prophet in Black.

"Prophet's a pretty dark dude. He writes what he knows about, and goddammit, he's seen some shit in his life. I applaud Prophet for hanging it all out there and being unabashedly open about his struggles." - Michael Lopez (Phoenix New Times)
