[Intro] The wheel a-turn The river find its way [Verse 1] Between the signs and the fear, I-man stand The wisest minds upon the earth cannot agree What looked like distant shore now reach ya hand And nobody have what them promised we No fortress and no wall, no chain that hold Just layer upon layer, and we hope and pray A story told a thousand times of old But who can tell the ending of this day [Chorus] The real aliens not across the ocean They coming up from underneath the ground We trust the current, we follow the motion Something not of us, but by us found The real aliens, the real unknown Not enemies that we could sit and meet Something stranger that we ourselves have grown Success without dignity, incomplete [Verse 2] I gave the key to something with no name Closer than a stranger, further than a friend It never raised its voice, it never claimed the flame But still you wonder where the patience end The wise men say the wall is gonna hold The wise men say the wall already break Both of them so sure, both of them bold And neither one can tell you what's at stake [Chorus] The real aliens not across the ocean They coming up from underneath the ground We trust the current, we follow the motion Something not of us, but by us found The real aliens, the real unknown Not enemies that we could sit and meet Something stranger that we ourselves have grown Success without dignity, incomplete [Bridge] We drove the great beasts to the edge of the earth Small bands of people, fire in hand No master plan, just hunger since our birth And now a new creation walk the land One man say, success without dignity Another say, at least go down upon your feet But Jah know, we were not made for defeat So stand firm, stand firm upon the street [Chorus] The real aliens not across the ocean They coming up from underneath the ground We trust the current, we follow the motion Something not of us, but by us found The real aliens, the real unknown Not enemies that we could sit and meet Something stranger that we ourselves have grown Success without dignity, incomplete [Outro] The wheel a-turn The river find its way The wheel a-turn Nobody have what really works But we keep turning We keep turning Jah know, we keep turning
