Say you got a minute friend
Because I'd like to tell you somthing
You may think nothing of it
But wait you're gonna love it
What if I told you I held the one true philosophy
Would you hear me out or just turn your back and laugh at me

Lord I just don't understand
This strange creature you call man
Who thinks he lives by his own hand
But I know, I know, I know, I know

There's no life away from you
There's no life away from you

So I will remain still and silent
For fear of the words I may say
But am I still in my defiance
When I'm trying so hard to obey

Say you got a minute friend
Becaus I'd like to tell you somthing
You may think nothing of it
But wait you're gonna love it
What if I told you I held the one true philosophy
Would you hear me out or just turn your back and laugh at me

Lord I just don't understand
This strange creature you call man
Who thinks he lives by his own hand
But I know, I know, I know, I know

There's no life away from you
There's no life away from you

So I will remain still and silent
For fear of the words I may say
But am I still in my defiance
When I'm trying so hard to obey
