Divinity
These hands I can play this drum
And on these two legs I can walk on this earth
Sharing space with the trees
Alimentation of all of my needs
We share this earth with the trees
Think of their needs
We share this earth with the trees we have to think of their needs
In the time that it takes to prepare
Gifts of love for the ones that I care
In the forever moments we share
Expanding the time we have together
Stretching the time we have together
We share the sky with the birds
We share the sea with the fish
We share the earth with the trees
We have to think of their needs
Moving forwards and backwards through time
Sharing knowledge that’s neither yours or mine
Separate from cultural design
We’re living in Divinity
One ocean, we’re living in it
One life form, we are being it
One life, we’re sharing that together
One planet, we’re walking on it
One ozone, we’re breathing in it
We’re sheltering under one life
One life
We are one life
With everything
We share the sea with the fish
We share the earth with the trees
We share the sky with the birds
We’re walking on one planet in Divinity
You and me, me and you and everything that’s breathing
You and me, me and you and everything that takes up space here
We are shariing this planet
We are living together on it
We could be one
Surely we are one

Fundamentalism
04:59
|
|||
Fundamentalism, doesn't matter what it is, just means people will suffer.
Together we can all stand as one
And live with respect and honour
Today let us all pray together
Remember our children are watching
Weapons of Destruction, doesn't matter whose they are, just mean people will suffer.
How can we live our lives in pain and anger when we could share in love together?

Kiss Goodbye

Kiss Goodbye
Wipe the slate clean, make a new beginning
with everyone you know
Kiss goodbye, to yesterdays arguements
put them in a balloon let them float to the sky
Today is the day for moving on
Yes, you’ve heard me that the time is here and now
We’ve got the choice to keep on growing our love
Until each and every one has what they need to thrive .
Please don’t let anything get in the way,
Don’t let your old and warn out conditioning get in the way
chorus
Listen carefully to what your heart tells you is true
it's the only thing you can rely on, for advice on what to do
every thing that happens has gone, has gone
The most wonderful feeling I know, is the one of moving on,
(Forward) brothers and sisters,
(Forward) hear me when I call out to you (Forward)
Forget the hands of time and move to a place where we can…
chorus
Bridge
Can we see clearly?
Listen deeply?
Be the people we would want to know?
Create our own reality from a place of freedom
With heart that are open to the love in everyone
Black brown white or grey
Straight bi trans gay
Whoever your God is
What ever you believe in
We all fit into some bodies category
And if we’re going to live to gether we’ve got to find a way
If we’re going to listen to each other we’ver got to make today the day to

Birthing Life
04:37
|

birthing life, our crystal ocean
earth’s body, rich in liquidity
salty tides tracing sandy fingers
sticky on wet skin
animals, birds, fish, & insects
congregating to drink, to be family
sweet droplets on tongue and beak
tree whales break though soil and sky
diving branches drenched with rain
falling back to muddy pools
where sparkling rays flash fine sprays
misty rainbows of light
humanity swims in elemental rivers
expanding ripples of ancestry
i am my grandmothers egg
and waited in my mothers waves
until the juices of my father burst life
with ocean, with moon, with rhythm, with blood
inky wetness sinks deep
intuitive forces,
receptive emotive
cleansing
flooding
evaporating

Befriend Me

Befriend me
Give me your hearts and I'll show you mine
You showed me the love of friends though you didn't know me
Just the laughter in my eyes
When you wear your smile
Rolling off my skin
As I watch you take me in
I bump and start cause it's new to me
Can't help but find my way
Befriend me
As you open your door to me
A book to read and a place to sleep
Something to eat and someone to talk to
As we sing, dance and pray together
(it) makes me think hard
Befriend me
As you lie beside me
And hold me close on the dance floor
Can't help but feel my feelings rise
Unfolding your story between street lamps and kisses
I want to say more but it keeps me warm inside
Befriend me
Kiss me goodbye I don't want to let go
With time so short and sweet
So powerful and so wise
I'm changed forever now
Can you feel my love do you know
You are here with me
When I close my eyes
