Damien Dempsey - Negative Vibes lyrics

Lord, Won't you give me the strength to be strong, and be true Cos, Lord, when the devil gets into my head, I'm so blue You knock me, if you're so mighty, why waste your time with me If I'm bad, ignorant and sad Why waste your time, you're mad You're just mad, because your life is sad You've done nothing worth while Twist the knife Because you hate your life My life you want to spoil I'm never going to let Your negative vibes and comments Get through to my psyche and cripple me I'm never going to let Your negative vibes and comments Get through to my psyche and cripple me I never will forget The suffering that my people went through In my country and overseas Were no use, verbal abuse That's all you have to give You preach nil, you're so cynical Jesus, wake up and live Your bad vibe will drive away your tribe And where will you be then All alone Heart as cold as stone Hurting yourself again
