“I know my destiny
so I”m free, my mind is clear
so take this love that I give
because I won’t be around for too long . . .
Darkness is the brother of Light
Awareness comes after a fight
The Truth of life is a mystery
but happiness is a love supreme
Let’s share what life has to give
Let’s love without any regrets . . .”
“I know so many people who think they can do it alone
They isolate their heads and stay in their safety zones
Now what can you tell them
And what can you say that won't make them defensive
I know there's an answer
I know now but I have to find it by myself
They come on like they're peaceful
But inside they're so uptight
They trip through their day
And waste all their thoughts at night
Now how can I come on
And tell them the way that they live could be better
I know there's an answer
I know now but I have to find it by myself”
“The creator has a working plan
Peace and happiness for every man
The creator has a working plan
Peace and happiness for every man”
“We’ve got a bunch of wide-eyed racists and they think they run this shit”

“There’s so many colors without the dirty windows”
“Don't be afraid, it's only love”
“By the time they figured out who the real fascists were it was too late
All the ink had long since dried and all the trains had long since left the station
Who is above loving a face they don't yet recognize
Weep to think what could have been, but I guess that could be said about anytime
Still it seems decisive things could've moved the needle; maybe not
If only something from our very recent past could act as a warning - give us some vision - but our vision's left wanting
But never again doesn't mean anything if it never stopped happening
Who is above loving a face they don't yet recognize
Give up some small sense of yourself and help smash the hateful tide”
“Once in a while, you get shown the light
In the strangest of places if you look at it right”

“We dream of ways to break these iron bars
We dream of black nights without moon or stars
We dream of tunnels and of sleeping guards
We dream of blackouts in the prison yard
Heartbroken we found
A gleam of hope
Harken to the sound
A whistle blows
Heaven sent reply
However small
Evidence of life
Beyond these walls
Born and bred
In this machine
Wardens dread
To see us dream
We hold tight
To legends of
Real life
The way it was before
We dream of jailers throwing down their arms
We dream of open gates and no alarms
We dream of ways to break these iron bars
We dream of black nights without moon or stars
We dream of ways to break these iron bars
We dream of black nights without moon or stars
We dream of ways to break these iron bars
We dream of black nights without moon or stars
Heartbroken we found
A gleam of hope
Harken to the sound
A whistle blows
Heaven sent reply
However small
Evidence of life
Beyond these walls
Born and bred
In this machine
Wardens dread
To see us dream
We hold tight
To legends of
Real life
The way it was before
Look to the day
The earth will shake
These weathered walls
Will fall away
Look to the day
The earth will shake
These weathered walls
Will fall away
Look to the day
The earth will shake
These weathered walls
Will fall away
Look to the day
The earth will shake
These weathered walls
Will fall away.”
“What's gonna happen now? In all of our cities?
My people are rising; they're living in lies.
Even if they have to die
Even if they have to die at the moment they know what life is
Even at that one moment that ya know what life is
If you have to die, it's all right
Cause you know what life is
You know what freedom is for one moment of your life
But he had seen the mountaintop
And he knew he could not stop
Always living with the threat of death ahead
Folks you'd better stop and think
Everybody knows we're on the brink
What will happen, now that the King is dead?
We can all shed tears; it won't change a thing
Teach your people: Will they ever learn?
Must you always kill with burn and burn with guns
And kill with guns and burn - don't you know how we gotta react?
But he had seen the mountaintop
And he knew he could not stop
Always living with the threat of death ahead
Folks you'd better stop and think
Everybody knows we're on the brink
What will happen, now that the King of love is dead?”
“… We got a thousand points of light
For the homeless man
We got a kinder, gentler machine gun hand
We got department stores and toilet paper
Got Styrofoam boxes for the ozone layer
Got a man of the people, says keep hope alive
Got fuel to burn, got roads to drive
… Keep on rockin' in the free world”
“I'm going downhill with increasing speed
And compassion gives way, if you listen to greed
Focus on the past and that's what will last
Nothing that is real and nothing you can feel
Focus on tomorrow you'll have to borrow
Images and mind and thoughts you've left behind
Focus on today and you'll find a way
Happiness is how
Rooted in the now”

“I live in the country because I love peace and quiet
But all of my neighbors have closets full of machine guns
And every Sunday they’re out there pretending to be Rambo
And I’m in here pretending like Sunday is still sacred
Conceal and carry your fear
don't need no weapons here
I've had all I can stand
Of the bloodthirsty leading man”
“Our love
Our love
Our love is all we have
Our love
Our love is all of God's money
Everyone is a burning sun”
