2. The Scream
"The Scream"
A verdict heard by the jury's word... they're lying
I watch as victims of our slave ships battle with the demons inside
But no wrong ever righted or proved by the innocent dying
I pray from the ashes of the ruins, the answer will rise
(The Scream)
Hear the screams as we rise from the ashes
(The Scream)
Lord save the soul who can hear the scream
A child is born to a world that is slowly dying
He chooses to march to the neat of a different drum
A man lays dead in the streets, his mama is crying
The people, they measure this man by the damage he's done
(The Scream)
Hear the screams as we rise from the ashes
(The Scream)
Lord save the soul who can hear the scream
Forgive us for our sins, I never meant the things I did
I never meant, I never meant, I never meant
(The Scream)
Hear the screams as we rise from the ashes
(The Scream)
Lord save the soul who can hear the scream
(The Scream)
Lord Save the soul, lord raise the soul, lord praise the soul
(The Scream)
Lord Save the soul, lord raise the soul, lord praise the soul
Lord Save the soul, lord raise the soul, lord praise the soul
A verdict heard by the jury's word... they're lying
I watch as victims of our slave ships battle with the demons inside
But no wrong ever righted or proved by the innocent dying
I pray from the ashes of the ruins, the answer will rise
(The Scream)
Hear the screams as we rise from the ashes
(The Scream)
Lord save the soul who can hear the scream
A child is born to a world that is slowly dying
He chooses to march to the neat of a different drum
A man lays dead in the streets, his mama is crying
The people, they measure this man by the damage he's done
(The Scream)
Hear the screams as we rise from the ashes
(The Scream)
Lord save the soul who can hear the scream
Forgive us for our sins, I never meant the things I did
I never meant, I never meant, I never meant
(The Scream)
Hear the screams as we rise from the ashes
(The Scream)
Lord save the soul who can hear the scream
(The Scream)
Lord Save the soul, lord raise the soul, lord praise the soul
(The Scream)
Lord Save the soul, lord raise the soul, lord praise the soul
Lord Save the soul, lord raise the soul, lord praise the soul
