Feed The Famine

I went to Haiti gluttonous
Came back on an internal diet
Promise to feed the famine

They starving for this

I went to Haiti promiscuous
Came back oh so fidelis
True to only a select few

Don't believe what they telling you

Beautiful Soul is a movement
Soul is... Beautiful
Although people act ugly to me
I still see their beauty
I still would like some unity
But not to my destruction
Not to the detriment of my sista

Everyone acting so lawless
Like its cool
But really they hate organization
But really they hate rules
So I had to come back
And make it clear
You can say and do
Whatever you want

Just not here

Beautiful Soul s a movement
Soul is... Beautiful
So we don't play with it
How is Gary and Haiti
So different

To think they just love us
Is just not intelligent
Use your wisdom
What they need - keep giving 'em

No matter what you've heard
It's not just music, singing and words

The Soul is my religion
Because its what I practice
Only strangers are surprised
When they come into our set
I already knew
How beautiful it could get

Off hard work and sweat
I won't forget
I was the poorest person
Outside the projects

But my mind stayed fresh
So I stayed fresh
Everywhere I went
Leaving my influence

Depuis je parti Gary
Ca bouge pour nous

Quand j'etait en Tunisie et Cote D'Ivoire
Ca bouge pour nous

Quand j'etait avec Fela dans la Shrine
Ca bouge pour nous

Quand j'etait en Haiti avec le peuple
Ca bouge pour nous

See this aint nothing new
I can feature on any set
And on my set - I give anyone a feature

Ungrateful they were respected
They long to go to the city to get rejected
When they ask from whence they came

They hear our name

I went to Haiti gluttonous
Came back on an internal diet
Promise to feed the famine

They starving for this

I went to Haiti promiscuous
Came back oh so fidelis
True to only a select few

Don't believe what they telling you

Soul is...
