i fear that well pave the skies
replace the stars with miles of track lighting
that our kids will never see the sun rise
or hear the beauty of the crash of lightning
that once all the trees have died
it wont be no wars
but our own breath that were fighting
for
who will do the giving if we all cant stop taking
who will burn bright if we cant stop faking
who will be the might
of the inner peace and light
pierce the darkness of strife
of our own selves first
appreciate the life of all thats birthed
thats just about everything
open our eyes cup our hands and drink
thirst is just a state of mind i think
we take for ourselves cuz we scared
that there wont be enough to go around
but i found out when i first let go
there is always enough let this truth be told
that stuff wont fill the soul
bloody hands dont make a man bold
cold hard cash just makes the heart colder
open up to the dark hood strangers
let all life be touched by the light of yours
let the light of life heal your scars and your sores
let yourself be something it never been before
spread them wings and let us people soar
we a one world village
why can we not understand this
how can we keep on killing
when our real business is of the spirit
shut the mouths of the suits and buildings
hold up the truth of our elders lessons
old fables are still so relative
what are we but distant relatives
