If I have weaknesses don't let them blind me

Or camouflage all I am wary of


I could be sailing in seizures of laughter


Or crawling out from under the heel of love

Do my prayers remain unanswered


Like a beggar at your sleeve?


Olodumare is smiling in heaven

Smiling in heaven I do believe





Reach in the darkness

A reach in the dark


Reach in the darkness


A reach in the dark

To overcome an obstacle or an enemy


To glide away from the razor or a knife


To overcome an obstacle or an enemy

To dominate the impossible in your life





Always a stranger when strange isn't fashionable

And fashion is rich people waving at the door


Or it's a dealer in drugs or in passion


Lies of a nature we've heard before

Do my prayers remain unanswered


Like a beggar at your sleeve?


Babalu-aye spins on his crutches

Says "Leave if you want if you want to leave"





Reach in the darkness

A reach in the dark


A reach in the darkness


Reach in the dark

To overcome an obstacle or an enemy


To glide away from the razor or a knife


To overcome an obstacle or an enemy

To dominate the impossible in your life





Reach in the darkness

A reach in the dark


Reach in the darkness

A reach in the dark


To overcome an obstacle or an enemy

To dominate the impossible in your life

Reach in the darkness


A reach in the dark

Reach in the darkness


A reach in the dark
