Emotional Prisoner Lyrics

David Hinds
Yeah
Hear my story
Rage and furyI've been used and abused
God knows I've paid my dues
No time to lose I've got the blues
So please don't you light my fuseI've got to get out
The shituation that I'm living
I've got to get out
The flesh is weak but I'm still willing
I've got to get out, yeah
Me a go, kill dem wid de riddimAn emotional prisoner
And Jah is my listener
He will guide me through
This ghetto bluesI've been whipped and I've been tricked
Human cargo from the slavery ship
I clenched my fist can't take more of this
It's time for me to flip the scriptI've got to get out

The shituation that I'm living
I've got to get out
The flesh is weak but I'm still willing
I've got to get out, I am
Me a go, kill dem wid de riddimAn emotional prisoner
And Jah is my listener
He will guide me through
This ghetto bluesOh, in my heart I search for love
'Cause I've been taken advantage
Got to carry Jah, Jah heavy load
Along that rough and ragged roadI got to escape, before it's too late
So don't test my faith
'Cause I'm jumping the gate and I'm outAn emotional prisoner
And Jah is my listener
He will guide me through
This ghetto bluesEmotional prisoner
And Jah is my listener
My fortress and protection
My spiritual connection
The rod of all correction
Through trials and tribulationThis is no delusion, I see him in a vision
Emotional, emotional
Uncontrollable, uncontrollable
Emotional
