Lyrics: Choose Love by Seven No 6
Lately I’ve been paying attention to all the news causing unneeded tension.
Swinging between depression and hypertension, trapped in a dopamine detention obsession.
My heart’s really starting to harden.
I remember walking in my flower garden.
Free with my monarchs and dragonflies garden.
Life was better then and not a burden.
Not sure how to navigate this new world.
There are no clear paths.
Everything is swirled.
It’s so easy to get caught up in the noise being hurled.
So much fake news and lies.
I’m not wired for this, Lord.
Running out of ideas.
Maybe it’s miscomprehension, but the world is on fire.
Nobody’s paying attention to the people suffering.
No connection, not to mention they’re our brothers and sisters, our reflection.
Yes, man.
Feeling a bit dark these days.
Heartbeat changed.
Been trying to keep this energy at bay.
God knows there’s a better way to make these strings ricochet.
God knows there’s a better way, a better way.
Our leaders making us feel betrayed. They’ve led us astray. I’ve seen it every day. By the way,
I’ve never been one to just sit and obey. I’ll find my own pathway. I’ll be okay. Now is our time to just break away from these strings dimming our light to gray. Separate from what’s keeping the light away. Open our hearts to you,
Yahweh. Tell me,
Lord,
Where you’ve been. We need you more than ever. Come clear our sin. Been holding this fear and anger with a grin. Thick skin searching for the light within. So many reasons to hate,
Watching our light get turned to gray. Black,
White,
And gay,
The struggle never separate. Propaganda dumb us down,
It’s a shame. So many reasons to hate,
Reasons to hate. Black,
White,
Wrong,
Or right,
Hate is a choice,
Not a birth right. I’m making a change,
Keeping his light in sight,
Not going to be a blight,
But a ray of light. Anger’s an infection formed by depression,
Unexpression,
But with a clear direction. Which doesn’t lead us to heaven. Please heal us,
God willing,
Let’s rewind. If you look real hard,
You’ll find beauty hidden within the struggle in your mind. By helping others feeling undermined,
Doing it for nothing,
Just to be kind. we need you now. Show me how to choose
You seem so far away.
Show me how to choose
Now is the time from darkness we climb.
Heaven reached our prime.
There’s something more sublime.
