lyrics

Illuminating shades of redemption and glory
Crossing borders is part of the story
Raising our voice instead of a cause
Rally the troops we’re making love not war
I’m a believer (a believer)
I believe her (I believe her)
I’m a bright light in a dark night
I’m a lover but I can fight
When you need somebody to hold you tight
Oh Lord I believe I can hold you tonight
Walk a mile down memory lane
With the Reverend King and JFK
Brothers from other mothers in another time
Dreams echo in our hearts and minds
It’s a slap dash, half ass, gasp at fame
The nightmare of the American dream
Caught up in the race and the big dog circus
Spending our days chasing tails in circles
To all the haters, hesitators and procrastinators
Putting off today what we can never change later
If you’re not going to lead man get out of the way
You can have the past leave the future to me
