Youssou N'Dour - Things Unspoken (Lees Waxul) lyrics

Be alert to what you see on television and at the movies And pay attention to what you read or hear Don't beleive everything naively Don't take everything at face value Don't mindlessly follow every movement Every leap and bound in that story in front of you Many things are left unsaid Engage yourself with the material Many things are left unsaid Pay attention to what is not said Bring out for yourself The things that are resting there Beneath the surface. What you read in books Everything that you study Cannot convey the whole picture Remember Our grandfathers pa**ed on knowledge In ways not taken much into account anymore Pay attention to what is not said Thank you I'm going to read between the lines Find meanings where the spaces are Don't follow every movement, Every leap and bound.
