victor lemonte wooten - back to india
Back To India
There's times I lay and close my eyes
There's a pull I feel that I cannot describe
It's from the past, inside my soul
It makes me yearn for things of which I did not know
And it shows in my life, 'cause I'm intrigued so much at times I cry
And I know this inside, it's from the ancient days of old
full of stories to be told
Take me back to India. I wanna go 'cause I wanna know
So, take me back to India. I wanna go 'cause I wanna know
Take me there and let me be, let me learn the keys of harmony
I know I'm blind so let me see who the man is that I'm supposed to be
And I'll find a love that aims to take me to a plce above
Where I am right now, I need to go back there some way some how
I need to go back
Take me back to India. I wanna go 'cause I wanna know
So, take me back to India. I wanna go 'cause I wanna know
I don't really know what I mean, but I can tell U what I see
When I'm lying in between sleep and awake
let me tell U what I'm talking 'bout

victor lemonte wooten - hero
There's a riot going on
And there's hunger in our midst.
Some people can't go on.
Some people call it quits.
When freedom is not the word
You'll find on Earth there's hell.
And U know one man saved the world
And he's in your heart as well.
(Chorus) Everybody's waiting for the hero, when the hero is in everyone.
Everybody's waiting for the hero, when the hero is in everyone.
A man is sleeping on the street
Because he has no place to live.
A millionaire is eating meat.
How come we're not more sensitive?
And when abundance is for the few
That's where the hunger lies.
Responsibility rests on U.
So keep your head up to the sky.
(Chorus)
victor lemonte wooten - higher law
If I was your leader I would do my best
to keep that residue off my chest
I would gather my congress. I wouldn't hesitate
'Cause there's a new law and it ain't up for debate
The good book says, as far as I can tell
everybody's going to heaven or
Help me find out Lord,
gotta find a better way
There's a higher law we need to turn to and there's no more time to waste
We need to sit right down in the middle of the floor
instead of running all over the place
Open up your mind, it's time. We gotta leave those fears behind
There's not much time at all y'all, 'cause there's a higher law
Just like a magician, make me believe
that U ain't got nothin' hidden up your sleeve
Then U kill my brother 'cause U don't agree
It may make sense to U but it don't to me
I say going to church may be a start
But the good book is written in your heart
Don't U wait for tomorrow
It's best U start today
There's a higher law we need to turn to and there's no more time to waste
We need to sit right down in the middle of the floor
instead of running all over the place
Open up your mind, it's time. We gotta leave those fears behind
There's not much time at all y'all, 'cause there's a higher law
There's a new sun rising, coming over the hill
Ain't no use running U'd be better off standing still
And don't keep acting like we got to kill
'Cause it's time to go higher, higher, higher
There's a higher law
A higher law we need to turn to, or we may have to burn thru
Unless we choose to learn through, through from our mistakes
'Cause that's sho'nuff what it takes to reach the higher ground
To go from lost to found, so when the end times come
We'll still be around
Just like the song says, I'm talkin' 'bout a higher law
not the judge in city hall
Take off your watch 'cause the time is right now.
U Ain't Listenin' Anyhow!
There's a higher law we need to turn to and there's no more time to waste
We need to sit right down in the middle of the floor
instead of running all over the place
Open up your mind, it's time. We gotta leave those fears behind
There's not much time at all y'all, 'cause there's a higher law

victor lemonte wooten - native
Once upon a time there were some relatives of yours and mine,
the ancient ones that came before
We've done our best to lay them all to rest, it's hard to find
them anymore
(Now that's for sure)
But sometimes when I close my eyes I see that they're all still
alive
Just talkin' to ya, livin' through ya, trying to get us all to
do our part
(So, when we gonna start?)
Heeeyyyy! We need another point of view, just do it, like the
natives do
Heeeyyyy! We need another point of view
I think I'll take a walkabout before the calendar run's out
A vision quest to open up our minds
The spirits keep in touch with me to let me know we're running
out of time
(yours and mine)
We all say that we're in tune but still we stay bed 'till noon
With all we see we still don't do enough
2 buildings fall. we're still in bed asleep. What does it take
to wake us up?
(I don't know)
Heeeyyyy! We need another point of view, just do it, like the
natives do
Heeeyyyy! We need another point of view
victor lemonte wooten - on and on
I've got this thing for U stay on mind
I know U feel it too easy to describe
My heart is open wide and I send praises to the sky
Sometimes I just don't know what to do with myself
Yes, I've been carrying on and U know why
The love U give me takes my spirit so high
And my senses come alive
U got me on this roller coaster ride that I don't ever
want to end
I love U since the moment that we met. There's a spark
in me and I will never forget
U lit a fire inside of me and there's no place I'd
rather be
Sometimes I just don't know what to do with myself
Love, I'll be there for U whenever U call. Baby, U've
got my soul, my heart, U've got it all
Until the sun ceases to shine and there's no moon up
in the sky, I'm gonna be right here.
So, let's keep this love...
Going on and on and on and on. Baby U're good for me.
I'm feeling the good in U
So, let's keep going on and on and on and on and on
I know that this is how it feels to be loved
So, let's keep going on and on and on and on and on
Baby U're good for me. I'm feeling the good in U
So, let's keep going on and on and on and on and on
I know that this is how it feels to be loved
We both made vows to be one for the infinite now we in
it,
under dogs, least likely to take the pennant
Who are we now deep in the mix of our second child
And our life meter teeters and varies contained too
wild
and true indeed sometimes it's over my head and hard
to breath,
to suffer is all I see and light at the end is hard to
conceive
Yo, but the story keeps going and flowing and so,
we gotta keep on knowing and showing that we here to
stay
nothing can steal our love away so we moving on and
ah, moving on and ah...
victor lemonte wooten - prayer
I remember back years ago I lived my life without too
many cares, y'all
And the truth of mine so hard to find was hidden there
between so many lies
As the shadows roll across my face the light appears
and show another side now
Things I shoul know, no one told me, now I must go and
I'm begging U tonight...
Say a prayer for me. Don't know where I'm gonna be, as
I go on this journey
Say a prayer me, uh, I'll say a prayer U
Don't know where I'll end up. As I empty out my cup.
So please say a prayer for me
Say a prayer for me and I'll say a prayer for U
Now I lay myself down to sleep I pray my Lord will
send me someone to greet me
As the light appears it seems so clear the things I
didn't understand before
Now I'm looking over all my years I see now who the
angel was beside me
If I hurt U please forgive me. I still need U and I'm
begging U tonight...
Say a prayer for me. Don't know where I'm gonna be, as
I go on this journey
Say a prayer me, uh, I'll say a prayer U
Don't know where I'll end up. As I empty out my cup.
So please say a prayer for me
Say a prayer for me and I'll say a prayer for U
Everybody needs a prayer sometimes something to know
that U care when I'm
Searching so long and hard to find a little bit of
piece of mind
On my knees asking please, will U say a prayer for
me?
Ask and U shall receive. It's hard to live in times
like these
Fulfilling prophecies, over seas they're living with
tragedies
It's hard to know what to do, say a prayer for me I'll
play my prayer for U
Say a prayer for me. Don't know where I'm gonna be, as
I go on this journey
Say a prayer me, uh, I'll say a prayer U
Don't know where I'll end up. As I empty out my cup.
So please say a prayer for me
Say a prayer for me and I'll say a prayer for U
victor lemonte wooten - stay
Stay
Send me 'round to the backdoor
Front wont let me in
It's hard to keep being peacefull
When these kind of days don't end
Things will get better tomorrow
At least that's what they say
When I wake up in the morning
It still looks like today
If I could fly away
I'd fly into the sky
No one to ask me why
I would be so free
Just carry me away
But on second thought...
I guess I'll stay
Help you find a better way
No vacation no holiday
I guess I'll do that another day
Can't get in through the front door
Send me 'round the back
It's hard to keep being peacefull
Stuff goin' on like that
I aint got no one to talk to
Talking just to me
I'll see you in the future
I don't know where I'll be
I guess I'll stay
A few more games I wanna play
A few more things I wanna say
A few more bills I have to pay
victor lemonte wooten - take u there
There's a little place I know
A secret place I like to go
Let me take you there

My name is Victa, and I'm a winner and I know what I'm
talkin' about
And just 'cause I come out on top don't mean I'm

Before U start to criticize, are U talkin' 'bout U or
me?

To be the Victa deal with who U are before U worry
'bout what to do

And, ah, for all U players out there
I want U to pull up a chair and sit down somehwere
My name is... I ain't gonna say it. It's already on
your mind
Some may call it bragging but I ain't got the time
I'm coming to getcha, that's right, look out
I'm sneaking up from behind, I'm sneaking up from
behind U
Don't worry, just a little bit more to say
I might wait 'till tomorrow it ain't gotta be today
I'm gonna tell my story, I don't know where to begin
The one thing that I know for sure; the Victa always
win
Ain't no worry in tomorrow, U just take care of today
When there's nothing left to borrow, then U have the
right to say...
My name is Victa and I'm playing like a player plays
(Yeah set it off, baby)
My name is Victa, and I'm playing like a player plays
My name is...
Ah the name is Bootsy baby, yeah just put your hands
