We Are Us

This feeling came over me
pituitary
vision-airing on the
side of an awakening
occurring across the planet
can you feel it
(Background voices: What does it matter?)
The ancestors said
bout damn time
but on time
same time
like last time
just like before
this manufactured
Truman Show
Hollywood
fakerry
wonder what the
story that is bubbling
reveal itself to be
(pre-chorus)
When we touch it, explodes
When we love it, ripples
When we see it, become
Whe we need it, it’s done
When we use it, make way
When we build it, sustain
When we give, reciprocate
When we live it, we generate
(Chorus)
If there were no us
There would be no you
There would be no here
There would be no purpose or meaning
Thank God
We uncoverd the lies
Made it through sufferage
and sacrifice
we
we
we
we
we
we
we are us!
Breathe
What if we didn’t exist?
If is a funny word
It leads to thoughts of
what could be
or could have been
Breathe
What if we didn’t resist?
If opens the door to
the hope and dreams and
possibilities
where darkeness seems to never end
Breathe
What if we come back together
if we use uncertainty
as motivation
to find new paths
Breathe
What if we take a deep breath
release the passion
of a million voices
ones that came before us in
our actions
in our visions
in our intentions
we will discover
(pre-chorus)
When we touch it, explodes
When we love it, ripples
When we see it, become
Whe we need it, it’s done
When we use it, make way
When we buld it, sustain
When we give, reciprocate
When we live it, we genrate
(Chorus)
If there were no us
There would be no you
There would be no here
There would be no purpose or meanining
Thank God
We uncoverd the lies
Made it through sufferage
and sacrifice
we
we
we
we
we
we
we are us!
