Weight Of The World

So we wrote

On precedents and angels

We build a book

We build a road out of nothing but a saying

Out of governments and police we build a book

Of how the things we know should be

So when a man comes with a difference

A woman comes with an idea

We crush it down to nothing in the fear that we will lose it

Open up the books

I'm guilty of it, too

Just like all of us

The information flies without us through

And say the way

This may have leave my head run over

And pass through a night so black, I can't see you, oh

Hope from the speeches spoken in

Hope from the speeches made day in, day out

With money paid

And adverising raging

A woman and a child sleep well as the day ends

Raising me up

Raising me like a man, oh man

Oh mother everything good I've gained I've gained from you

Oh and mother everything I've know I learned from you, oh

But, the reign in the house so no one sees me

Oh, should we brothers and sisters upheave it?

I read a book of a man most worshipped

A man who most worshipped

For ideas and for the birth of freedom he showed

Well, in, oh in twenty years

He begged the revolutions come

So that no pig-headed bastard would steal you and i

From...my fun

Rain in the eyes

Rain in the mourning eye

Oh rain/reign in the love of my mother, my brothers

And I hear the voices of women calling loudly and (here,

Holding, holding, holding)

And nothing should address this like our love for each other...

This land is your land

This land is my land

From california to new york island

From the redwood forest

To the gulf stream waters

This land belongs to you and me

Rain/reign in the eyes that we should lead it

And the brotherly love and go away

And rain/reign in the eyes that we should lead it
