Prison Of The Conscience


[Music and Lyrics: Cláudio David]

I see, I think, I feel and I hear
These are some of man's senses

Weak by nature and forbidden to use
Wisdom is condemned 'cause it means the truth
And it can destroy a strength system controlled by

Fews but they're smarts
Deceiving a million mass
No need to change the situation
They're raising their extermination

I've found out that I've been isolated
Because I can think they're sure I'm crazy

I've seen wars
Men fighting with their own hands
Why we kill? Why we die?
I can't understand
I've seen people
Blinded by some blind dictator
Oppressing crowds
Spreading death with a sickly determination

I've seen many abusing of man's faith
With laws and lies for some God's sake
And I can't believe in their kind of God
But for something we have to say our prayers

And I saw, I thought, I felt, I heard
Hard things for me to understand
But life's still going on
And I'm the only one insane
Maybe I'm really crazy
'Cause with love I dream
We're the prison of our consciousness
Someday it gotta be free
