Cuando estaba en Valdivia escuché varias veces un tema en inglés estilo Soul cuyo intérprete daba la impresión de ser negro por la voz. Era un tema bien psicodélico y por lo que entendía con mi inglés de aquél entonces (fines de los 1980s comienzos de los 1990s) y me llamaba la atención de que la letra decía «Oh Lucifer...»
De nuevo gracias a la magia de Internet (la magia de las bases de datos en línea mejor dicho) encontré el tema. Se llama «War of the Gods» y es interpretado por Billy Paul, cantante de afroamericano de Soul nacido 1934.
Esta es la letra:
War of the Gods
The time has come, for bad things to end
The time has come, for life to begin
The time has come for the War of the Gods
Lucifer, oh lucifer
God of evil, you're the god of hate
We see you every day
Father of the light
Your main man died
When the light shines
You run and hide
The darkness is when you find your light
Master of tricks,the master of pain
I said;
You're the one, you're the one who has no shame ohhh
Lucifer, Sa-tan the devils your name
Do you have time to get your army ready
You know love conquers all
Will you stand, will you stand
Or will you fall
The time has come
For bad things to end
The time has come
For life to begin
The time has come
For the War of the Gods
God is just a title
It's like calling somebody father,
Preacher, President or General
Allah, Buddha, Hare Krishna,
Jehova, just the mention of you
Some people even call, call Jesus God too.
Love, Peace and Eternal Life
Is every word
To anyone who knocks on your doors
There's only one God that's true
You know,
The name is not the same
One day the people of the world
Will know your Great Name
You are the Strong
And you are The Mighty
I hope I'm with you
When they start the fighting
The War of the Gods
Love, Peace and Eternal Life
Is what I want
Love, Peace and Eternal Life
Is what I want
God, God
You are The Strong
And you are The Mighty
I hope I'm with You
When they start the fighting
Lord!
Lucifer,
Satan, the devil your name,
Have you had time,
to get your army ready?
to get your army ready?
Lucifer, god of evil
Hey, we see you everyday:
The father of the light
He knows you start to running hot
The darkness,
Is where, is where, is where, is where, is where
Gotta talk 'bout you because thats you find youre the light
God!
God!
You make me feel so good this morning
God!
We gon talk about,
Lucifer, lucifer, lucifer, lucifer,
God....Kicked you out of heaven
cause you didn't pay your rent.
God.....Kicked you out of heaven
cause you didn't pay your rent.
God.....Kicked you out of heaven
cause you didn't pay your rent.
And He is The Strong
He is The Mighty...
