The Voice Lyrics

[Intro: Celtic Woman]
I hear your voice on the wind..
And I hear you call out my name..
"Listen, my child," you say to me..
"I am the voice of your history..
Be not afraid, come follow me..
Answer my call, and I'll set you free.."

[Bridge A: Celtic Woman]
I am the voice of the past that will always be..
Filled with my sorrow and blood in my fields..
I am the voice of the future, bring me your peace..
Bring me your peace, and my wounds, they will heal..

[Hook: Celtic Woman]
I am the voice in the wind and the pouring rain..
I am the voice of your hunger and pain..
I am the voice that always is calling you..
I am the voice..
I am the voice..
I am the voice..
I am the voice..

[Verse 1: Elusive]
I'm the voice, of yourself, but can you hear me when I'm speaking?
I ain't even need to fight, now, cause it's just the light I am seeking
And I feel like I'm weak, but I ain't need to reconstruct myself
Imma just find out, why in my mind, I'm critiquing
Everything I do, like I'm never satisfied that I'm still here, breathing
I wanna make the most of every minute, last thing I'd wanna see is you leaving
So, why do I feel, I'm deceiving, shit is seething
But I know the only thing I need, is to find peace, like if I can believe in
Myself, there ain't nothing out of my reach of achieving
I don't wanna turn back time, cause there's nothing but punishment, I have been receiving
And now I am a long way from, Eden, but the human race is headed in the wrong direction
So when it all turns around, we will be the one's leading
But I shouldn't need to, tell you, I have been bleeding
You're the oxygen that's in my blood, the reason my heart's still beating
And I ain't eaten, in weeks - see, I could die alone here, for no reason
Just so you can hear my voice, echoing, in the winds of every single season..
[Bridge B: Celtic Woman]
I am the voice in the fields when the summer's gone..
The dance on the leaves when the autumn winds blow..
Never do I sleep throughout all the cold winter long..
I am the force, that in spring time will grow..

[Verse 2: Elusive]
Like I gotta shout, just to get you to hear me when I'm speaking
I ain't need to turn back time, when the same shit still keeps repeating
You think you're hot, sun? See, II Kings is like a double barrel shotgun
So you've got no option, but to run cause you and us are just not competing
We are on another level, and it's why we will always be succeeding
I look forward to the future - I forget everything I've seen preceding
Cause they seemed to just keep treating me, like an ant, but I'm sick of getting stepped on
It dug a hole inside of me, that now I will plant a seed in
See, life is like a book that you can't stop reading
But we will always be, on the same page, you should know, when II Kings is intervening
You won't need a god, messiah, cause when I walk into the fire
Say goodbye to me - I'm possessed by a demon
And I want to be released, but for now I only feel alive when I'm dreaming
I ain't need you to look into my eyes, for you to give my life meaning
You were there when I was at my lowest, now I walk along the road I go, the slowest
Told you what you already know, but it's cause you only seem to hear me, screaming..

[Hook]
[Verse 3: DMB]
All you have to do is try and listen, if there is no voice, it is a vision
An emission, that is given, to all the living that believe in wisdom
You don't even have to be a christian, you were young when you received this mission
Now you've run away, the seed is missing - throughout the sands of time you'll see me sifting
I can see a lot of weight that you just don't need to be lifting
This may not be the cause of your pain but, it is a symptom
So if you try to break away too fast you will start drifting
Crippling, when you realize that the weight you have dropped has been the mess we have all slipped in
But in this system, choose your path with care, cause the balance is shifting
I understand this world is a place you don't seem to want to live in
Cause you miss him, every night when you wake up in bed, dripping
Tripping, now you're on the floor, but you're unsure if you are the suspect or the victim
So just pay attention to every single word I have ever written
Like this song, everything in life has both a meaning and a rhythm
As I wait to be forgiven, witness my collision, I am making the decision
And I know you wish you had a choice, I give you the voice cause I know you'd never see the vision..

[Bridge A]

[Hook]
