If I have weaknesses 
Don't let them blind me 
Or camouflage all I am wary of 
I could be sailing in seizures of laughter 
Or crawling out from under the heel of love 
Do my prayers remain unanswered 
Like a beggar at your sleeve 
Olodumare is smiling in heaven 
Smiling in heaven I do believe 

Reach in the darkness 
A reach in the dark 
Reach in the darkness 
A reach in the dark 
To overcome an obstacle or an enemy 
To glide away from the razor or a knife 
To overcome an obstacle or an enemy 
To dominate the impossible in your life 

Always a stranger when strange isn't fashionable 
And fashion is rich people waving at the door 
Or it's a dealer in drugs or in passion 
Lies of a nature we've heard before 
Do my prayers remain unanswered 
Like a beggar at your sleeve 
Babalu-aye spins on his crutches 
Says leave if you want 
If you want to leave 

Reach in the darkness 
A reach in the dark 
A reach in the darkness 
Reach in the dark 
To overcome an obstacle or an enemy 
To glide away from the razor or a knife 
To overcome an obstacle or an enemy 
To dominate the impossible in your life 
Reach in the darkness 
A reach in the dark 
Reach in the darkness 
A reach in the dark 
To overcome an obstacle or an enemy 
To glide away from the razor or a knife 
To overcome an obstacle or an enemy 
To dominate the impossible in your life 
Reach in the darkness 
A reach in the dark 
Reach in the darkness 
A reach in the dark
