The Lyrics

Ah, ooh-ooh

Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh,ooh-ooh

Scores of empty promises dressed on ancients tablets of clay

A life barely lived now slipping away…

All my senses couldn’t bear the presence of HIS stare.

Now, I realize (Now, I Realize)

It won’t be in the news, it won’t be in the dark. I was living a lie.

Distracted by design to rob my identity, my worth, my destiny.

This news flash won’t be in the news. (Now, I realize)

The life I was living dressed in traditions

Repeated lies beneath hidden truths

Twisted thoughts in my head entangled my soul. I felt HIS presence

Cleansing my heart’s creosol.

Now, I realize (Now, I Realize)

It won’t be in the news, it won’t be in the dark. I was living a lie.

Distracted by design to rob my identity, my worth, my destiny.

This news flash won’t be in the news. (Now, I realize)

Ah, ooh-ooh

Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh,ooh-ooh

I am the man in the arena. Not a spectator.

Called to testify. Cause warriors don’t die.

Now, I Realize

Ah, ooh-ooh

Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh ooh-ooh

Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh (ah-ah)

Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh

Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh (oh-oh)

Ooh-ooh
