The Miracle in a Sunbeam

In the Virgo Cluster in the Milky Way

3rd rock from a star where my people stay

They call us human

We call ourselves by our color

To eyes from above it seems we murder each other

So futuristic, why is peace, love

And happiness so futuristic,

Why is peace, love, and happiness so futuristic

Why is peace love and happiness so futuristic

So futuristic

I'm hoping we could fix it

Adam and Eve sitting in the garden of Eden

God said do what you wish cept for

That Apple don't eat it

You got all of this here

I swear to me you don't need it

If you do we'll write a book

And make your descendants read it

But I created you wired you to know you'd always want more

Because after all that's what the concept of heaven for

Y'all don't wanna die, gotta have that alternate ending

It's something to look to

When you know you ain't been living

When you hate what you're given

But never worked to have more

It's easy to trick yourself into thinking there's more

But earth could be heaven

And you could be god

It's true that you could be the artist

Paint the life that you want

Earths a beautiful canvas

A miracle to behold

Long as you don't get caught up

In all the green and the gold

You wait for miracles straight out the book of letters and Psalms

Maybe the fact we're even here's the biggest miracle of all

Perfectly distanced from the sun to have light

But not burn up

A moon to guide the tide

And give us light till the sun up

Planets on the outer rim to block the cosmic debri

A speck of dust in a sun beam is really all that we be

Think about that when we talk about the concept of peace

Our fighting and ignorance keeps us far from the key

Over who's gods better, who's really reppin the truth

Burning down houses for who lives over the roof

In the Virgo Cluster in the Milky Way

3rd rock from a star where my people stay

they call us human, we call ourselves by our color

to eyes from above it seems we murder each other

so futuristic, why is peace, love, and happiness so futuristic,

why is peace, love, and happiness so futuristic,

why is peace love and happiness so futuristic

so futuristic

I'm hoping we could fix it

In the USA

Home of the free and the brave

That's what we were promised

But I don't see that today

Screaming I can't breathe

Cause we all drowning in lies

The Garner tragedy saw

That with our own eye

Screaming film the police

And still the system is fucked,

The people are over it everyones had enough

And I've had enough of artists not speaking up

This a serious problem it ain't an issue to duck

Fuck what color I am speak on it because I'm human

Throw the police the power

And then we watch em abuse it

We saw the shady ways of the CIA

Grand jury prosecutors treating cop cases the same

When someone dies by another take it to trial no questions asked

Cause it seems when you work

With each other you'll get a pass

My thoughts go out to every family whos ever been effected

Middle fingers go to every cop who's ever benefitted!

I know racism is alive

I see the fire in the people's eyes

I hear the screams of a mothers cries

Let the power stand down let the people rise

I know racism is alive

I see the fire in the people's eyes

I hear the screams of a mothers cries

Let the power stand down let the people rise

Only then can we equalize

When we start to look through equal eyes

Only then will we equalize

Until then we're all living equal lies.
