Diggin' Me Down Lyrics

Ozzy Osbourne

You're saving the saved, men and women enslaved Propagating the messiah conception The rich getting richer, paint you into the picture Give the poor immaculate deception
Where are you father, why don't you save us? The fallen are dying alone How can you turn off their cries? Ignore a new genocide so come on, Jesus We're all here waiting just for You
How long must we keep on waiting? The faithful and blind are keepin' me, keepin' me down How long 'cause my faith is breaking? The pure and divine are diggin' me, diggin' me down
Do you live in the light or in the dead of the night? Sanctimonious promises broken Hypocritical sin dying slowly within Is the sacred truth forever unspoken?
Life ever after bohemian rapture Beware the dark side of the son You're just a self-made messiah Selling brimstone and fire, so come on, Jesus Don't keep us waiting just for you
How long must we keep on waiting? The faithful and blind are keepin' me, keepin' me down How long 'cause my faith is breaking? The pure and divine are diggin' me, diggin' me down
How will I know You, Mr. Jesus Christ? Have You already been here once or twice? The son of man or obsolete facade How will I know that You're the son of God, yeah

This is such a very strong song. It has such a true Sabbath vibe. The whole album really pulls no punches with the lyrics. Ozzy is laying it all out there. By far the best of his solo work lyrically.
