letra de voices at the crossroads - k'naan
[intro: k’naan]
you into it?
alright, well let’s get into this one
close your eyes on this one and vibe with me
[verse 1: k’naan]
so
in the beginning there was hum
from a poet whose pulse fell
drum drum drum!
he would perform prayers and all
till one day he heard a voice call
come come come!
suspicious he moved with vicious caution
dismisses, he thinks it’s a little off
people get held back
by the voice inside them
yo –
the voice said i’m poised to speak inside you
rejoice and please let me invite you
to evil, greed and lies too
yeah –
confused and dazed he moved in ways he soon became a kunni
boom boom boom
and knock on his door his heart is no more
and knock on his door his soul is no more
[hook: tracy chapman]
all you folks think i got my price
at which i’ll sell all that is mine
you think money rules when all else fails
go sell your soul and keep your sh-ll
i’m trying to protect what i keep inside
all the reasons why i live my life
[verse 2: k’naan]
so so so –
the poet’s got a proposal
he would own his soul but never know
what it feels to be free
he would be the frozen imposed as the chosen on all those opposing
but he would be greed
that’s got him there
he’s power hungry and proud too
people don’t care, people just scared
people don’t care, people just prayer
[hook: tracy chapman]
all you folks think i got my price
at which i’ll sell all that is mine
you think money rules when all else fails
go sell your soul and keep your sh-ll
i’m trying to protect what i keep inside
all the reasons why i live my life
