lyrics

Out in a distant clearing
Quiet you can hear her breathing
Feel the heart beating like a drum
There is a world awaiting
Home of peace & reparations
Maybe it’s not that far from home

Come on, we’re getting closer
Come on, we’re getting closer

When I close my eyes
I hear the voices crying out
hurry, we don’t have much time (no)

Hold on for the healing, family
All voices needed
To speak up and to listen
To act on intention
Hey! We’ve got work to do

Must not dismiss the vision
What’s achieved by cynicism?
Justice needs the hand and the heart
Got to walk the walk of our religions
Put our money where our mouth is
Right now is the time to start

Come on, we’re getting closer
Come on, we’re getting closer

So my true allegiance
To all people
Til we’re equal nobody’s free, no

Hold on for the healing, family
All voices needed
To speak up and to listen
To act on intention
Hey! We’ve got work to do

And now the veil is thinning
We’re staring fear in the face
The time & the place
Is right where we are standing
Before it all falls away
Falls away

It’s easy to get disillusioned
Weighed down by the mind pollution
Custom tailored headlines & hate
But we’re hard-wired for evolution
If we envision a future
Inclusive of all, we can make it

Come on, we’re getting closer
Come on, we’re getting closer

Hold on for the healing, family
All voices needed
To speak up and to listen
To act on intention
Hey! We’ve got work to do
