The Time Has Come

The Time Has Come…
To realize our connection with each other
The Time Has Come…
To remember that we’re all sisters and brothers
The Time Has Come…
To feel and share the love within our hearts
The Time Has Come…
To turn the swords into plowshares for a brand new start
So many wars are caused by the worship of greed
As they deny the people of their basic needs
Living in a peaceful world is the people’s main concern
Who are forced to fight in battles… where they never return
The Time Has Come… to stop the wars
There’s no need to fight you know it just ain’t right
The Time Has Come… to respect each other
Shine our love like the sun on each and everyone
The Time Has Come… to create unity
There’s no other way no matter what they say
The Time Has Come… to live together
It’s time to turn the page to the “Golden Age”
The Time Has Come… to live in peace

The End of All Wars
03:23
|
|
||
|
We have the power to decide our fate
I believe that our love will always overcome our hate
Violence in society they like to keep promoting
While it paints a picture of peace as something boring
Every war is rationalized about fighting for a greater good
But all that I see is the destruction of our neighborhoods
We think we’re so civilized
But we still act like a bunch of cavemen
We keep failing the lesson to live together as friends
The End of All Wars is finally here
I’s time to rejoice it’s time to cheer
The End of All Wars has come to be
A peaceful victory for humanity…
The End of All Wars…
The end justifies the means is the reasoning so they say
We got to break the “Chain of Pain”
So it’s no longer remains
The End of All Wars is finally here
I’s time to rejoice it’s time to cheer
The End of All Wars has come to be
A peaceful victory for humanity…
The End of All Wars…

The Flower Children… symbols of forgotten times
The Flower Children… singing songs of “Peace & Love”
The Flower Children… stand for the truth and they
Give you a flower with a smile
They remind us that nature is our home
Following their hearts in everything they do
Helping to make our dreams come true
“Make Love Not War” they protested in the streets
They’re dedicated to a way that can be
Better for all humanity
The Flower Children… symbols of forgotten times
The Flower Children… singing songs of “Peace & Love”
The Flower Children… stand for the truth and they
Give you a flower with a smile

You don’t have to be my friend to be nice to me
We both have a lot in common being a part of humanity
Respect what makes us different
And follow the “Golden Rule”
As long as we don’t hurt each other that would be cool
The “Dream of the People” is to live peacefully
Teach the leaders to love everyone for the sake of humanity
We are the Rainbow Tribe of the Hopi Prophecy
We’e going to survive the Technocracy
We are the Rainbow Tribe creating a Spiritual Rebirth
We’re going to thrive in the coming “New Earth”
The Rainbow Tribe

The Age of Peace & Love
01:35
|
|
||
|
I wish I could see the world just like they do
Rose colored glasses are pretty to look through
Yet the truth of the matter awoke me from this dream
Of the suffering from delusions of what it seems to be
And we to seek to find the answers each and every day
Because we’ll never solve our problems
If we look the other way
We must find the strength to survive this age of transition
For the universe is calling us to fulfill our mission
Remembering our dreams of why we came here
For The Age of Peace & Love… is oh so near

The Dreams of Yesterday…
Slowly drift away but we mustn’t let them go
Forever in our hearts…
They are apart of a greater love we know
The challenges we face have been there all along
Now is the time for us to finally fix what’s wrong
The Dreams of Yesterday will return once again
So keep the faith my friend
The Dreams of Yesterday need to come to be
For they are our destiny...
The Dreams of Yesterday

Brothers & Sisters
01:56
|
|

|
Marginalized… to the point of non-existence
It’s so sad… and it hurts so bad the loss of love between us
Standing on a cliff confronting a wide divide
Open up your heart and realize
That we’re both… on the same side
Brothers and Sisters come together as one
Embrace each other with kindness and love
Brothers and Sisters the “Golden Age” is here
Don’t let them divide us with their hate and fear
Brothers and Sisters don’t forget our unity
Stand up for the freedom of humanity
Brothers and Sisters we’ll be okay for the
“Age of “Peace & Love” is here today

Age of Uncertainty
02:12
|
|
||
|
How can you leave?
You’ll just go onto new realities
Does it bother you to take to me about anything not small?
When you were young days filled with lots of fun?
Have you looked at just what you’ve done
To make the world a better place?
In this Age of Uncertainty
It’s so confusing to know how it will end
In this Age of Uncertainty it’s good to know that…
You’re my friend
What can I do to make it easier to make it through?
I never wanted it to fall on you all that responsibility
In this Age of Uncertainty
It’s so confusing to know how it will end
In this Age of Uncertainty it’s good to know that…
You’re my friend

Dreaming of Utopia
02:02
|
|

|
The people believe in utopia… an ideal place to have fun
We’re all doing what we can to get there…
But it won’t come by force like the barrow of a gun
Too often we get confused from
What greedy politicians say
They lie to us with their propaganda
To make us believe that war is okay
We’re all Dreaming of Utopia… where we can all be free
We’re all Dreaming of Utopia…
Where peace and love shall come to be
We’re all Dreaming of Utopia…
A better world for us to live in
We’re all Dreaming of Utopia…
As we hope and pray for it to begin

Tomorrow Will Be There

Why not let those bygones by bygones?
They did all that they could… now they’re holding you down
Get on with the life you so wanted
Don’t pretend that you’re something… that you never were
It’s so easy to fall off the mountain we climb
Because there’s so much… that just isn’t right
Know now that the chance of a life time
Is so patiently waiting for whenever you are
It’s so easy to fall off the mountain we climb
Because there’s so much… that just isn’t right
Let’s all help each other out and
Then there’ll be no doubt… that
Tomorrow will be there
We must go beyond our fears and
Make this one the year… that
Tomorrow will be there….
"Everyone!"
Lalalalalalala……. that
Tomorrow will be there….
Lalalalalalala……. that
Tomorrow will be there….

Everything Beautiful
01:23
|
|

Made the climb to the edge overlooking the straits
Cows at my back… dog at my side… guitar in hand
I sing to the sundown before sending peace agreements
That are kept in a box on a shelf that’s easy to reach
The none all gone, the empty and the stoking wounded
The hand that grasped desperation like a turned oar cutting the water
I have not forgotten the memory of your face at first sight
Or the long hours spent standing in windows through the night
Watching the sky and the road and however it goes
I am only willing always in the name of everything beautiful

Peace on Earth
03:16

What are we trying to do by hurting each other?
When we're so much alike we're all sisters and brothers
Let's walk away from all this fighting, it's so insane
We're all responsible if we're looking for someone to blame
Remember when we were young?
We loved and cared for each other
The dream is the same to live in peace together
Peace on Earth is what we are singing
We can all be friends if we try from the start
Peace on Earth is what we are hoping
Feel the love that shines in every heart
For Peace on Earth....Peace on Earth
