LET me make the songs for the people,
Songs for the old and young;
Songs to stir like a battle-cry
Wherever they are sung.
Not for the clashing of sabres,
For carnage nor for strife;
But songs to thrill the hearts of human
With more abundant life.
Let me make the songs for the weary,
Amid life's fever and fret,
Till hearts shall relax their tension,
And careworn brows forget.
Let me sing for little children,
Before their footsteps stray,
Sweet anthems of love and duty,
To float o'er life's highway.
I would sing for the poor and caged,
When injustice dim their sight;
For the LGBTQ, and the keepers of age
We rage, and love, to save, together we fight
Our world, so warn and weary,
Needs music, pure and strong,
To hush the jangle and discords
Of sorrow, pain, and wrong.
Music to soothe all its sorrow,
Till war and crime shall cease;
And the hearts of human grown tender
Girdle the world with peace. | | Influences | The masses and you. Those who lived and died to change reality, to construct an alternative. Those living now willing to fight for change or visualize an alternative. The dub poets, the MCs, the spoken word poets, the written word, ryhme and cadence, prose, rants, love, affection, solidarity, fresh fruit and vegetables, brown rice, legumes, green leaves like kale, collards, mustard, and chards, my parents and ancestors, idealists, and people who balance a sense of humor and the suffering of the Earth and peoples while not going completely mad. | | Record Label | Always free, your not underground unless your free |
