I've been 2 the mountain top
I've been 2 the valley low
The one thing that never stopped
Was the love that my family showed
When my mama she passed away
My papa he gave us hope
He said there won't ever come a day
When your family won't help U cope

As sure as Moses' staff parted the water
As sure as Cain had 2 pay 4 his crime
As sure as no one wants 2 be broken hearted
That's how sure I am that blood is thicker than time

Well

We went 2 church on Sunday mornin' (Oh yeah)
All dressed up lookin' mighty fine
The spirit came without a warning
Intoxicated us all like wine
Don't it make U stop and wonder
Why we kill our own kind every day?
Why can't we get along with each other
When we damn well know it's the only way?

As sure as Moses' staff parted the water
As sure as Cain had 2 pay 4 his crime
As sure as no one wants 2 be broken hearted
That's how sure I am that blood is thicker than time
(That's how sure I am, oh yeah, blood is thicker than time)

Don't it make U stop and wonder
Why we kill our own kind every day?
Why can't we get along with each other
When we damn well know it's the only way?

As sure as Moses' staff parted the water
As sure as Cain had 2 pay 4 his crime (Uh-huh)
As sure as no one wants 2 be broken hearted
That's how sure I am that blood is thicker than time

That's how sure I am blood is thicker than time


Mirror lyrics:

That's how sure I am blood is thicker than time

That's how sure I am that blood is thicker than time
As sure as no one wants 2 be broken hearted
As sure as Cain had 2 pay 4 his crime (Uh-huh)
As sure as Moses' staff parted the water

When we damn well know it's the only way?
Why can't we get along with each other
Why we kill our own kind every day?
Don't it make U stop and wonder

(That's how sure I am, oh yeah, blood is thicker than time)
That's how sure I am that blood is thicker than time
As sure as no one wants 2 be broken hearted
As sure as Cain had 2 pay 4 his crime
As sure as Moses' staff parted the water

When we damn well know it's the only way?
Why can't we get along with each other
Why we kill our own kind every day?
Don't it make U stop and wonder
Intoxicated us all like wine
The spirit came without a warning
All dressed up lookin' mighty fine
We went 2 church on Sunday mornin' (Oh yeah)

Well

That's how sure I am that blood is thicker than time
As sure as no one wants 2 be broken hearted
As sure as Cain had 2 pay 4 his crime
As sure as Moses' staff parted the water

When your family won't help U cope
He said there won't ever come a day
My papa he gave us hope
When my mama she passed away
Was the love that my family showed
The one thing that never stopped
I've been 2 the valley low
I've been 2 the mountain top

Popular Songs:
black magic woman

sleigh bells ringing

prefiero

the story of my life

one hope's evening

the best keeps getting better

when the children cry

counting blue cars

eternamente

language of the heart

seasons of life

always wanted!

radio

sound of a broken heart

standin' on the edge

ens en sortim

in search of 1988

and if you could see me fly

oro de ley

no ja, pa kaj...
