Better Than Ezra - Recognize Lyrics
(f/dj swamp)First thing I remember was lying in the sandWhen a plague of seven horsemenCame across the desert landThey had one good eye between themThey were burning up the skyWhen I asked why they had come for meThe ugly one repliedHe told meAh, you better recognizeAw, you better recognize, sonNext thing I recall wellI was hanging from a cliffWhen an angel came to rescueMe and held me in her gripShe said, everyone whos ever loved youGets hurt in the end.Then she smiled and said, forgive me.As she let go of my handShe told me(you been living out of pocket, out of your socket)Ah, you better recognize.(you been leaning like a pisa, a moaning lisa)Ah, you better recognize, son(hip hip for all the busted, we are entrusted)Ah, you better recognize.(you come a pleading, but its too lateWe cant hear youre on the list now!)And let your dim light shine.Always darkest before the morning light,Lord knows you aint that brightBetter let your dim light shineJust before I hit the groundI woke up in my bedI was dazed and I was wearyAnd my heart was full of dreadWhen I looked at my reflectionI was horrified to findThere were seven horsemen next to meThe angel close behindThey told me(you been living out of pocket, out of the socket)Ah, you better recognize.(you been leaning like a pisa, a moaning lisa)Ah, you better recognize, son(hip hip for all the busted, we are entrusted)Ah, you better recognize.(you come a pleading, but its too lateWe cant hear youre on the list now!)And let your dim light shine.
