[Verse 1: Prince]
I hitched a train (mmhmm) between here and St. Paul
Had no idea (no) had to sleep in a pig stall (Dirty, dirty)
Once I got home, the dirt that covered me
Nothing like the disappointment that you would never see
[Chorus: Prince]
Same page but a different book
So much more in common if you'd only look
There's only one God (One God), whatever name He took
Only matters when it comes to war
What are we, what are we, what are we fighting for?
[Interlude: Prince]
Breathe
Let it breathe
[Verse 2: Prince]
New kids on the block
Tryin' to make they bed
(Mmm) Here come another rock (Here come y'all) upside their head (Oops)
There go the missiles headed for the 'hood (Oh Lord)
Trigger another car bomb did nobody no good
[Chorus: Prince]
But we're on the same page but a different book
So much more in common if you'd only look (Only look)
There's only one God (One God), whatever name He took (Whatever)
Only matters when it comes to war
What are we, what are we, what are we fighting for?
[Interlude: Prince]
Alright, listen y'all
We're about to let this thing just groove
Mm, move
C'mon
[Bridge: Shelby J.]
Chapter, verse, which came first?
Thinkin' too slow while they snatch your purse
Faith, love, good deeds, practicing what you preach
Between you and me, TV ain't reality
That's right, I said it, it's said
Buy this, cop that, all up in yo' head
Twenty-four hour news, that ain't right, huh
Them suckers got you daydreamin' at midnight (Hey)
Huh
[Verse 3: Prince]
Galatians Chapter 3 says
The law was as good as dead
Have faith in the life, death, and resurrection of the second Adam instead
Would bring our souls' salvation
If there's works in the faith we choose
But if you're all alone throwin' stones
Who do you think's gonna lose, who do you think's gonna lose?
[Chorus: Prince]
Same page (Oh) but a different book
So much more in common (hey) if you'd only look (Only look, y'all)
One God (Yes it is), whatever name He took (Tell 'em)
Only matters when it comes to war
What are we, what are we, what are we fighting for? (Oh)
Same page, different book
Same page, different book
Same page, different book
Only matters when it comes to war
What are we, what are we, what are we fighting for?
[Outro: Prince]
Same page, different book
Watch out for the sinister minister
They out there y'all
Uh
Same page (Looka here), different book
You better off chillin' 'til the world ends, mm
What are we, what are we, what are we fighting for?
