Paroles

There were things they said we couldn’t do
We shouldn’t do, we wouldn’t do
But it wasn’t true, it wasn’t true
Said those who govern you:
No sudden moves or they’re gonna shoot
But there’s enough abuse we’ve suffered through
If anybody smothers you then cut ‘em loose
Discover love anew and you
Knew what it was coming to, what are you gonna do?
You and me, we decided:
We decline to be divided
It’s human bеings I side with
And each of the crеatures I would please
To be seated side to side with
Even the people I mightn’t see eye to eye with
Kindness is the piety that a society thrives in
Every mind is invited with us to find the horizon
The higher we try to fly
The further aloft we are lifted
But what if everyone who existed
Was a cog in the system, was a drop in a liquid?
A dot in the ink that wrote the historical chronicle
Everyone of us lives in?
From the prodigious kid to the not very gifted
We’re a cacophonous mix of abilities
Personalities
Races, nations, colors, and families
Strands that run through the tapestry
Feeding the fruit on the apple tree
Preceding, providing Sir Newton with gravity
A new view of reality
You’re a cell in a body of a humanity
That will expand beyond your mortality
You say you’d like to live forever
Then give whatever it is
That makes you bigger and better
Whether it’s just having written a letter
Or knitting a sweater
Or developing interstellar inventions
Bringing us fresh frontiers to venture into, get up
Through effort and sweat and in grit and endeavor
These are things that bring us together
From king to beggar
Sing, give every peasant a throne
Rise so high we see heaven below
They say better the devil you know
I say better the devil you don’t
So long as you’re loved, you’re never alone
So long as you love, wherever’s your home
Whether Washington, London, Venice, and Rome
Toronto to Dublin, Vienna, Cologne
Kiev, Mecca, Delhi, Sierra Leone
Everywhere under the celestial globe
Set it in stone, shout from the mountains
Send out the loudest announcement
However alone you feel right now
You’re surrounded by thousands and thousands and thousands
Of people like you who feel like you do
The crowds are spread out but they’re countless
When the scenes that you see on the news get you down
Just look out for the helpers helping the helpless
Better get out there and help them
A single being’s a song, a family’s an album
A community is a discography
Can you imagine managing without them?
We swim through bits and waves
Little fish in a digital age
Where it’s tricky to listen, engage
Each different day is a difficult maze
Where drifting on minimum wage
Bears little difference to living in physical cages
I say this isn’t the way
We’re in the midst of an infinite play
On a spherical stage, you’re given a page
Of the script to fill in, begin it and say
Whatever you’ve written, commit to the change
Which day is it, it’s today?
Which day is it, it’s today?
Which day is it, it’s today?
