Righteous knot

JP Parker

February 24 
Lyric
Everyone’s wishing they are somewhere they are not
Everyone’s wanting to do something they are not
Everyone needs to see something they do not

Twisted and Tangled - WE are all in Knots

Everyone’s wishing their child to succeed where they have not
Everyone’s wanting more for less because they have not
Everyone needs support when they can not

Twisted and Tangled - WE are all in knots

Everyone deserves a tax base that bears nurturing fruit, but they have not
Everyone depends on the tide to lift their situation also, but conditioned porous and buoyant they are not
Everyone needs to give and receive Love, the antidote to evil, violence and hatred - too many will not
