To you.



to you the world I say you wretched thing
you muddy,moist,warmly & busy bee
you the thing that denies the thing that's free

the thing where born with that we've put a tab & fee
the thing some of you are wanting to see
but I wonder can we all achieve such a feat

As I have said I have seen the light so why can't be me
because some of you aren't ready to believe
who knows if it's our destiny
but from this vision I have now seen
that we can certainly some day achieve
