Let the healing begin
Oh, open up and let the love flow in
Let hope and joy come and destroy your suffering
Let the healing begin
'Cause we've been down for too long in babylon
Got to be strong time to move on
We can't afford teh rent no more
Beating our fists upon the door
Won't take no more
Won't stand here wainting contempling on the shore
Cause we're ready for some change
It's time to rearrange
Things are getting so strange this hour
Wicked men sit up in power while the most cower
Choose to believe to be deceived by these cowards
So babylon I'm fading from your site
Babylon I'm fading from your site
Because I know it's gonna be alright
If I give up this fight
And get some sleep tonight
'Cause fighting never did solve anything
And love is all that I man have to bring
Because I'd rather jump and dance and sing
And spend my time swimming
In love everlasting
'Cause if everything they say is true
Then there's no hope for me
No hope for your too
Oh so don't you believe
A single word they say
'Cause they're the ones
Who got us in the fix we're in
Let the healing begin
Oh! Open up and let the love flow in
Let hope and joy come and destroy your suffering
Let the healing begin
I have flown across to foreign lands
And seen the inequalities forced on my fellow man
I have witnessed things that
In my heard I just can't stand
And seen atrocities that have haunted me
I can't overstand
Little children gone for weeks without a bite to eat
Grandmothers laboring broken blisters bloodied on their feet
People drinking sewer water 'cause ther can't get nothing clean
All inocent victims of this money machine
Oh, every single word I say is true
But I got hope for me
I got hope for you too
Oh so don't you believe a single word they say
'Cause they're the ones who got us in the fix we're in
Let the healing begin
Oh! Open up and let the love flow in
Let hope and joy come and destroy your suffering
Let the healing begin
Oh, babylon I'm fading from your site
Oh, babylon I'm fading from your site
Because I know it's gonna be alright
If I give up this fight
And get some sleep tonight
'Cause fighting never did solve anything
And love is all that I man have to bring
Because I'd rather jump and dance and sing
And spend my time swimming
In love everlasting
