Charlie Hunter, Ernest Ranglin and Chinna Smith - What I Am

I see faces in the sky of sad forgotten souls
Low down decaying joy no hope to keep me whole
No breeze to comfort me no love to save my mood
Sunlight burns into me I'm branded solitude

How many times can I ignore
That devil standing at my door
How many times can I forgive
I want to die but still I live

Too many thoughts demanding what I'm meant to do
Too many pains of old call out the pains of new
I squeeze my head so hard to force the demons out
Dark angels laugh at me and all that I'm about


How many times can I ignore
That devil standing at my door
How many times can I forgive
I want to die but still I live

I can't go on
I hate my self
I can't let go
Of what I am

A poisoned mind corrupts the fabric of my soul
I rip apart the script but still I play the role
