Never Alone 04:05
Virtue is the enemy, anger now the norm Greed the only currency keeping rich and poor both warm You've seen enough of what was beautiful erode Now you're running in before it all explodes Never alone in the day of fire and ice Never alone in the way of sacrifice Never alone when you dare defend the right Never alone when you're standing in the light There are always others near, though you may not see When the choice is crystal clear force or ever free You'll be reaping now where many once have sowed You're not the only one to walk a straight and narrow road Never alone saying more than you would say Never alone as they shout "behold the fool" Never alone paying more than you could pay Never alone in the stain of ridicule Never alone when they're twisting in the knife Never alone when you're laying down your life Never alone at the limit of your might Never alone you've been standing in the light We are not alone, forged for any weather Tear the sinews break the bones, We are bound together We know as we are known, far seeing is our sight Founded on the stone, Standing in the light Never alone as the conflict rages on Never alone in the aching of the night Never alone til the breaking of the dawn Never alone when you're taking up the fight Never alone though all hope is waning dim Never alone you're on wings of seraphim Never alone love's the current of your flight Never alone when you're standing in the light

One Look 03:52
LATELY, I’M BEGINNING TO SEE MY SMALL WORLD IN A DIFFERENT WAY WHERE ARE MY ANSWERS, MY EQUATIONS THIS ISN’T LIKE ME, WITHOUT WORDS TO SAY AND DO YOU KNOW, JUST WHAT YOU’VE DONE I DON’T THINK YOU DO, I DON’T THINK YOU SEE YOUR PECULIAR HEART HAS ME ALL UNDONE YOUR CRYSTAL EYES CAST THEIR SPELL ON ME AND I’M BEGINNING TO SEE THAT IF GOD EXISTS, WITH HIS SAINTS AND HIS ANGELS IF MIRACLES REALLY ARE TRUE (IF GOD EXISTS) YOU COULD MAKE BELIEVE IN THAT HEAVEN FROM THE FEELING I GET WITH ONE LOOK FROM YOU. I HAVE KNOWN MANY FACES BEFORE MANY KINDS OF HEARTS, MANY KINDS OF MINDS NOW YOU’RE HERE AND YOU’VE OPENED THE DOOR TO SOMETHING I’D NEVER THOUGHT I’D FIND CHORUS: [REPEAT] BRIDGE: SOMETHING IN ME IS BROKEN AND WE’VE NEVER SPOKEN I’D LIKE JUST A SIGN JUST SOME TINY TOKEN THAT YOU NOTICE ME CHORUS: [REPEAT 2X]

Rise Up 03:45
"I regard myself as a soldier...a soldier of peace." - Ghandi Rise Up "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal. They are endowed by their creator with certain unalienable rights. That among these are life, liberty...the pursuit of happiness." - The Declaration of Independence Lookin' at millions under a circus tent Watchin' a jackass chase a dumb pachyderm Oh what a show! Tappin' on any shoulder that I can find Of anyone on there who might change their mind It's time to go. To the real world outside with those pirate ships The drunken sailors with dirty lips That rule the night Shoutin' don't be afraid of those wicked men There's more of us than there are of them Come join the fight! Rise up and be counted Take your part in the solution Linking arm in arm, to arms, to arms Lower your guns and raise your voices Join the peaceful revolution Shout I'm mad as hell and I will ring the bell of freedom Ride with me from Boston to Phili to LA With reason come marching With knowledge come drumming Let everyone hear you Each soul that is near you The British are coming! the British are coming! We built a house of sticks a hall of parlor tricks But we blame it all on our politics Oh what a shame! Truth is the cancer ain't just in the head Half the body's nearly dead We're all to blame Time to pledge no more standing on one thin leg Lack of principle's a powder-keg And we can't wait If we just say what we mean mean what we say Take back the power we gave away It's not too late - Grab your tea and follow me Rise up and be counted Take your part in the solution Linking arm in arm with words as arms Lower your guns and raise your voices Join the peaceful revolution Have you an ear to hear, an eye that sees us We come in the Spirit of Martin, of Ghandi, of Jesus Holding fast to the words with the power that frees us Rise up. Make your choices Choose the peaceful revolution Sell what you have to sell so the devil can tell Then let them raise their hell And we will ring the bell of freedom The bell of freedom The bell of freedom

Remember 04:42
Peace, prosperity, pride Our wizards said there’d be no ebb to this tide And the sages did not see the spaces to hide Or the cracks in the footings, the termites inside Then darkness broke through that clear morn in September When our land saw the blackest hell I swore what I’d be, and I would remember The day after... When what to my wondering worry worn eyes Mere strangers at once turn near kindred with binding ties City to city to wide open country skies No left or right, black or white, hands on hearts, all please arise! The light that shone through those dark days like an ember Lit the fires of the citadel And we swore what we'd be, we'd always remember The days after the towers fell Short memories, of braveries, of slaveries, Prone to retreat And walk through the door, like Rome before, forevermore Known in defeat The remedy, no mystery: know history Or be doomed to repeat it. Just seven short years, oops! we've blown it again The bubbles this time around are bigger times ten The Animal spirits broke loose from the pen Can we put them back, pull the slack, right the track But it's business as usual, we're playing the fool Though no bodies falling to the ground, no smell of jet fuel The carnage lying round the bend's as real and as cruel Many realms gone before have marched to their December While the crowds cried "all is well!" That fate will be ours if we don't remember The days after, the days after The towers fell Remember the days after Remember the day after Remember the day after Remember, Remember, Remember

Like a woman convinced her worth's in the shine of her hair, the cut of her dress So she won't remember that under the shape of her skin lies a heart that beats in her chest had I forsaken, or had I forgot If so then witness me untie the knot Cause my God wouldn't settle for anything less More than fertile fields more than her mighty hand More than tower's high and ocean's white with foam Hallelujah she's a lighthouse may she stand America my home what do the masses who cross over oceans have deep in their hearts, that keeps them aglow While we raise our glasses and gamble for gain All the world's our stage, come join the show But they know on earth there's still only one place Though all in hell try like hell to erase What my God has given to all who will know Read the words he's written on her golden door "All are free to find a life that each can own" Hallelujah as they cry upon her shore America my home So let them come and come what may All those who hate the light of day Who in their arrogance and pride Build those towers to the sky to hide Her grand idea, her shining thought For that so many toiled and fought For her so many bled and died For her not few the times I cried So leave your mansions you have made of sand Hold her in your heart where ere you roam Hallelujah shout throughout the land America my home America my home America my home

Wonder of Wonders and Miracles true Providence smiled and brought forth a child Left her in the watch-care of me and of you Let Freedom Ring, from the home to the high-rise Let Freedom Ring, and let none despise Let Freedom Ring, in the march of the soldier in the fields of the farmer, the weak and the wise When did we falter and not understand, She must have a people of conscience and character virtuous hearts, raising clean hands Let Freedom Ring, for the leaders who stand Let Freedom Ring, black, brown, white hand in hand Let Freedom Ring, between owner and labor, the wave of each neighbor, each voice of the land Let Freedom Ring, in the touch of the lovers Let Freedom Ring, in the hearts of the mothers Let Freedom Ring, in the arms of the fathers, the ears of children, between sisters and brothers Now Will we defend her Not just abroad but at home Will we pledge sacred honor, fortune and life No matter the darkness, the danger the strife

"Oh, daddy!" The sound of your voice stops me cold as I hear you say, "Why are you angry with me?" Those perfect brown eyes leave me no room to hide away. Oh Please Forgive me my son, my love I've not been my usual self Someday you'll know, and you'll try not to let it show When the weight of the world's comin' heavy And the weight of the world takes you to your end The weight of the world, won't get the rest of me I'll never drop a knee I promise you I'll never bend To the weight of the world. There's too much at stake Too many mouths too feed, too many hearts that need ain't got time to bleed I Don't know what i can take never had no quit in me, hard to stand, hard to see, From the gloves have been pounding me God make me more than I am on my own God set my mind and my will like a stone God lift where I lack and brace my back For the weight of the world's comin' heavy And the weight of the world takes me to my end The weight of the world, won't get the rest of me I'll never drop a knee I promise you I'll never bend to the weight of the world. This is my gift to you, This is my sacrifice, And if I had it again to do I would give it and never think, never think twice How could I see your love Written all over your face Then run run away, when I should embrace The weight of the world when it's heavy The weight of the world when it takes me to my end The weight of the world, won't get the rest of me I'll never drop a knee I promise you I'll never bend to the weight of the world. The weight of the world The weight of the world

Poppa would ask me, “Boy, now what did I tell you?” Then he would wait till I could clearly say… Be honest, be humble, be cheerful, be brave You won’t be perfect, but I’ll never excuse you All I ask is that you try every day, Be a worker, be a steward, a servant, never a slave Let the world go it’s own way Pray you’ll always say… I will, I will, I will, I will, I will stand I will stand on my own I will, I will, I will, I will, I will stand Even if all alone As I grew I saw the wisdom he gave me Most cause I tested it time after time Have faith, he’d say, be hopeful, be loving, always be kind, I didn’t now that these were words that could save me Not wise enough to see the reason and rhyme In gain knowledge, be loyal, be selfless, firm in mind Didn’t know I held the key That will set me free… I will, I will, I will, I will, I will stand Stand for what I’ve been shown I will, I will, I will, I will, I will stand Even if all alone I love his words… Remember who you are, take care of our name Your word is your bond, don’t look to lay blame If you have done you best my son you’ll never be a shame My greatest joy: if you tell your's the same Now I’m a poppa in a world full of danger God help me be a man with a backbone of steel Above all fix my eyes on the babe in the manger When most around me are far too gone to feel And be patient, be persistent, be fearless, be strong And be gracious, be selfless, and always admit when I’m wrong And have honor , and reverence, perseverance, when trials are long And be grateful, be grateful, be grateful… I will, I will, I will, I will, I will stand Stand and risk all I own I will, I will, I will, I will, I will stand Even if all alone
