Lyrics
Oh my parents told me when I was very small
No such thing as freedom unless freedom's shared by all
They said the Red Sea is the place where I can help those I love
That's right, to set themselves free
And the Red Sea
Aint the place you wanna be
If your mind is full of greed
It takes a mighty strong belief
To stand there when your time arrives
And the Waters ask you if you have a plan
Or if all you have is a gun in your hand
Oh many good souls have come before us and even though they're gone
They're still watching over us and making sure we dont go wrong
And every day I stand beside the Red Sea and I wonder if I can
That's right, Help the ones I love
And the Red Sea
Aint the place you wanna be
If your mind is full of greed
It takes a mighty strong belief
To stand there when your time arrives
And the Waters ask you if you have a plan
Or if all you have is a gun in your hand
And if you take our pride away
How will we look our children in the eye
When the time arrives
As the time always shall
And if you take our heart away
How will our children dare reply
When the time arrives
As the time always shall
oh to set truth and justice free
(Oh the answer's in my soul)
(I know it's in my soul)
And the Red Sea
Aint the place you wanna be
If your mind is full of greed
It takes a mighty strong belief
To stand there when your time arrives
And the Waters ask you if you have a plan
Or if all you have is a gun in your hand
Oh the Red Sea's not the place you wanna be
Unless you have the strength to set yourself free
