lyrics

[Verse 1]

I traveled to the edge to see
exactly what it means to be.
If people came together,
and listened to each other,
rid ourselves of every
frequency but love…
Just imagine where we’d be as people,
where we’d be as one.

The system we’ve designed
is broken at the spine.
It’s not the fault
of yours or mine.
Forget the isms and sides,
unify this great divide…
Break the paradigm,
it’s the story of our time.

[Chorus]

And I don’t have the answers
just the questions and commitment
to a higher state of being
than the confines that we’re living here.
What’s your story? What’s your reason?
How’s that life you think you’re livin’?
How you feeling ‘bout the future?
Will you join us Black Snake Killers?

Sick the dogs, bring the mace,
desecrate this is sacred space,
I am standing here in prayer
get your gun out of my face.
To my brothers and my sisters
holding down that front line,
trust in Spirit hey, trust in Spirit we’ll be fine.

[Verse 2]

There will come a time
when we drop the yours and mine.
When we give not to receive,
and we love not to deceive.
What’s it mean to own the land?
Will you take my open hand?
Walk this road and help
the others understand?

The edge came near, I felt the fear.
Grinning wide, ear to ear,
I opened up my fist
and lay down my spear…

[Chorus]

And I don’t have the answers
just the questions and commitment
to a higher state of being
than the confines that we’re living here.
What’s your story? What’s your reason?
How’s that life you think you’re livin’?
How you feeling ‘bout the future?
Will you join us Black Snake Killers?

Sick the dogs, bring the mace,
desecrate this is sacred space,
I am standing here in prayer
get your gun out of my face.
To my brothers and my sisters
holding down that front line,
trust in Spirit hey, trust in Spirit we’ll be fine.
