Anthem

All of humanity is seeking,

and sneaking, and speaking

in tongues.

We've all become numb

assuming things have to be

this way, well they don't...ok?

I'm sick and tired of fearing,

and hearing a note of apathy

in the anthem that you sing to me,

when clearly destiny is all that is free.

When we finally assume responsibility

and stop being victims of the system

that we created.

We made it, so we can change it.

If it does burn down,

in the aftermath of ash

upon the ground, truth will be found.

Let that song resound off the

purple mountains majesty,

from sea to shining sea,

drowning out the star spangled banner's

unholy clamor of glory in war,

when the only thing worth fighting

for is peace.

So the deceased can at least

be released from this life not in vain.

Can you hear the refrain of that melody?

The change starts with me and with you.

So do what you should, what you would

if you had no limits, because the

truth is we are limitless,

regardless of what you have been taught,

and brought up to believe.

Breathe....and reprieve the condemnation

of this "one nation under God",

because it's one world, and if there is a God,

his favors unfurled upon
the whole planets surface,

and without love we're worthless.

So love life and live,

and in doing so give something back.

The fact of our pack, is that we have the knack

to shake things up, and if you give a damn,

start shaking, and making a plan,

to bring down "the man", and replace his face

with the billions who stand in his place.

United, because divided, we are falling.

My voice in calling out a lyrical shout!

Joining with others in our new world song,

the volume is rising,

c'mon, sing along.
