1. NATIVE TONGUE

(Instrumental)


2. THE SCREAM

A verdict heard by the jury's word...they're lying
I watch as the victims of the slave ships battle with the demons inside
But no wrong ever righted or proved by the innocent dying
I pray from the ashes of the ruins, the answer will rise

[Chorus:]
Hey (the scream)
Hear their screams as they rise from the ashes
Hey
Lord save the soul who can hear the scream

A child is born to a world that is slowly dying
He chooses to march to the beat of a different drum
A man lays dead in the street, his mama is crying
The people, they measure this man by the damage he's done

[Chorus]

Lord praise the man who can hear the scream
Forgive us for our sins, I never meant the things I did
I never meant, I never meant, I never meant

[Chorus](x2)


3. WHIP COMES DOWN

Listen up, there's one thing I got to make clear
Alright
Search your whole town you want it, I got it right here
Oh yes I do

I don't know what you've been told
You better use that thing before it gets old

Now, I'm no stranger to what you're going through
If you're willing to, I'll show you what your love can do

[Chorus:]
Baby, tonight's when the whip comes down
Hold on, I'll show you what love's about
Tonight when the whip comes down

Kill the lights, that's when everything comes into view Oh yes it does
Take me down let me wrong all the right out of you
Oh yes I will
Let me rock you, let me roll you
Then I'll show you what a whole lotta love can do

[Chorus]

C'mon baby lemme light your fire
Burn it up in your desire
C'mon baby take my hand
I'll lead you to the promised land

Baby, tonight's when the whip comes down
Baby, tonight's when the whip comes down
Baby, tonight's when the whip comes down

Down, down, down
Show you what it's all about
