"Contradiction" lyrics - OHIO PLAYERS

Contradictions
(Contradictions)
To me it seems that's what life's all about
(That's what life's all about)

My convictions
(My convictions, girl)
Are always keeping my poor soul in doubt
(Keeping my soul in doubt)

My restrictions
(My restrictions, girl)
Are always at war with all my needs
(With all my needs)

My intention's
(My intention's, well)
To go through life and never bleed
Contradictions

And now love and hate
Should try to negotiate
(Let's make our deal, girl)
There's no time to wait
Do it now, don't delay

Put away all your fears
Don't believe the things you hear
Just keep the faith, don't hesitate
Someday you'll be great

Contributions
We all must give so that we can receive
(Well)
The solution would be to never need

(Yeah)
A revolution
(A revolution)
Is bound to change your constitution

(Bang, bang, honey child)
Retribution
(Illusion)
Confusion

(Confusion)
Illusion
(Institution)
Diffusion
(Dilution)
Contradiction

If you won't change
You'll make me feel strain
And there will be a contradiction
And we won't have a chance to love

Love and hate should try to negotiate
There's no time to wait
Do it now, don't delay
Put away all your fears

Don't believe the things you hear
Just keep the faith
Don't hesitate
Someday you'll be great

Contradictions
