Early morning, rising with the sun
Resting where the sky meets the earth
Feeling the first rays of sunlight reach into my soul
Where they reinstate the sense of my own self-worth
If you're not good, you're bad
That's far too black and white
Behold the glorious sun
In all its radiance bright
It too is at times is obscured
By the thick blue veil of night
Still the moon and all the stars
Combine to reflect its light
And so it is that we are good
Though we do not always do as we should
We lose track of right and wrong
And we're not always standing strong
But still, don't you wanna believe
In things that eyes do not perceive
Like the light shining from within that
In a battle with our darkness can win?
The gates of heaven open up before me
As my heart is given wings and flies
Leaving all pretense behind, everything is crystal clear
Even the worry of uncertainty subsides
They say the time will come
For us to be reborn into the newness of unity
That has been torn into duality, into "It's us against them"
It's from that place of fear that all our conflicts stem
Almost there but not yet
Still the stage is set
For the play we may enact
According to our contract
That we made both you and I
With everybody in our home up high
To awaken from our deep and long undisturbed
Though hardly peaceful sleep
If to look is to know the grace that you'd bestow
Upon those that you would raise into a kind and loving gaze
Then to look is to see everyone as good as they can be
