Should I close my eyes and prophesize Hoping maybe someday come Should I wet the ground with my own tears Crying over whats been done Should I lift the dirt and plant the seed Even tho I've never grown Should I wet the ground with the sweat from my brow And believe in my good work My good work My good work My good work Hey there, I'm flying up above Looking down on the tired earth And I can see, I can see potential Speaking through you, speaking to you From all of heaven's possibilities Power, hey do you know how it works Hey do you know that the meek, they shall inherit the earth You should work, you should work If only serving the family Should I hit the water or stay on dry land Even though I've never swam Take machete into the brush
Though at first there is no (man?) Taste the war paint on my tongue As it's dripping with my sweat Place my gaze in the futures path Seeing things that ain't come yet Hope to watch the victory dance After whole day's work is done Hope to watch the victory dance In the evening's setting sun Hope to watch the victory dance Over many lives to come Hope to watch the victory dance In the evening's setting sun Setting sun Setting sun Setting sun Hope to dance the victory dance After whole day's work is done (setting sun) Hope to dance the victory dance In the evening's setting sun (setting sun) Hope to dance the victory dance Over many lives to come (setting sun) Hope to dance the victory dance In the evening's setting sun (setting sun)
