And so you got yourself a hurricane Running through your brain Driving you crazy off on a campaign Like a red-eyed, wild stallion Hell-bent to win A battle with no winners A war with no end On the banks of forgiveness You clutch to your burden The waters are begging But you won’t throw it in You are a dove, flying like a crow You know, you know But you won’t let it go Up into a sky of hate 
Further you go Leaving a solution Way down below You know, you know But you won’t let it go You are a dove, flying like a crow So now you’re using a shield of hope To dig a grave You called the past your master So today you are its slave Your pride’s cry of victory Has signaled your defeat You traded in your throne For a broken seat On the banks of forgiveness The waters beg you to throw it in But your tears burn your wounds And you just won’t listen You are a dove, flying like a crow You know, you know But you won’t let it go Up into a sky of hate 
Further you go Leaving a solution Way down below You know, you know But you won’t let it go You are a dove, flying like a crow Forgiveness is for the forgiver More than the one being forgiven Do you know, know, know? Forgiveness is for the forgiver More than the one being forgiven Do you know, know, know? Forgiveness is for the forgiver More than the one being forgiven Do you know, know, know? You are a dove Flying like a crow You know, you know But you won’t let it go Up into a sky of hate
 Further you go Leaving a solution Way down below You know, you know But you won’t let it go You are a dove Flying like a crow Forgiveness is for the forgiver More than the one being forgiven Do you know, know, know? Forgiveness is for the forgiver More than the one being forgiven Do you know, know, know? Forgiveness is for the forgiver More than the one being forgiven Do you know, know, know? Forgiveness is for the forgiver More than the one being forgiven Do you know, know, know?

I’m a dreamer of dreams Though it sometimes seems Like I’m a fool for doing so But if you’re a dreamer of dreams Then you surely know Some dreams won’t let you go Yes, I’m a dreamer of dreams Though it sometimes seems like I’m a fool for doing so But if you’re a dreamer of dreams Then you surely know Some dreams won’t let you go 
I grow tired of sitting under this tree that I can’t climb And whose fruits refuse to fall I’m tired of begging for the crumbs from this table Don’t know how long will be able to carry on this way Feeling so close, yet so far away So close yet so far away So close yet so far away So close yet so far away So far away So far away I’m a dreamer of dreams Though it sometimes seems Like I’m a fool for doing so But if you’re a dreamer of dreams Then you surely know Some dreams won’t let you go 
I grow tired of this storm Whose winds threaten And whose rains refuse to fall I’m tired of those Who promise me everything Then give me nothing at all I’m tired of begging for the crumbs from this table I don’t know how long will be able to carry on this way Feeling so close, yet so far away So close yet so far away So close yet so far away So close yet so far away So far away So far away Time, have you foresaken me? Or are you just taking me on a very long ride Your ways seem so unfair Every time I ask, “when will I get there?” You always say that I’m So close yet far away So close yet far away So close yet far away So close, so far away So close, so far away So close, so far away So far away

I saw you standing in the storm The rain beat upon you The winds howled her name I reach for you, but I reach in vain You’ve long been drown in a sea of shame I reach for you, but I reach in vain You’ve long been blinded by your own self blame Some say it’s better to end it Than to keep carrying on But I say hold on, hold on, hold on What words can I say?
What song can I play? To make you understand just how beautiful you really are yeah The night is darkest before the dawn Hold on, hold on, hold on I’ll be your fire, fire, fire to warm you up Your water, water, water to cool you down Your fire, fire, fire to warm you up You water, water, water I’ll be there for you, I’ll be there for you I’ll be there for you, I’ll be there for you I saw you standing in the storm The rain beat upon you The winds howled your name I reach for you but I reach in vain You’ve long been drowned in a sea of shame I reach for you but I reach in vain You’ve long been blinded by your own self shame Some say it’s better to end it than to keep carrying on But I say hold on, hold on, hold on The night is darkest before the dawn Hold on, hold on, hold on I’ll be your fire, fire, fire to warm you up Your water, water, water to cool you down Your fire, fire, fire to warm you up You water, water, water I’ll be there for you, I’ll be there for you I’ll be there for you, I’ll be there for you The night is darkest before the dawn Hold on, hold on, hold on Just hold on, hold on, hold on

Unotamba sei (You dance like) Usina mangwana mukomana (You have no tomorrow, brother) Unotamba sei (You dance like) Usina mangwana (You have not tomorrow) Tamba Wakachenjera (Dance wisely) Tamba Wakachenjera (Dance wisely) Tamba Wakachenjera (Dance wisely) Things can’t remain the same Why keep on with the old rules when today’s a new game I’m tired of all this fighting and I’m trying to find Some people who know how to be kind So whether you chant a psalm or read the Koran Here I am, I’m reaching out my hand So come on now Don’t let me down Don’t let me down Don’t walk away I’ve got something I wanna say I’ve been waiting for you Waiting for you Don’t let me down Don’t let me down. So now who are the children of a lesser God But those who believe God is lesser. It’s a choice did you come to curse Or are you going to be a blesser So whether you offer the ancestors libations Or find some peace in meditation Here I am just another man born from a woman And I’m reaching out my hand So come on now (Repeat Chorus)

In a land called “Down Under” The people got together They were 40,000 strong And they required of me a song Just before the new millennium They came to tell me that the time had come Up on the stage I told everybody, “I’m gonna be a daddy” We sang 2000 in Then climbed a mountain To pray give way To this a brand new day And as the first light cut the dawn I heard a voice from clear and strong “The mountains you have climbed, Your children will fly from” The mountains we have climbed Our children will fly from See, the mountains we have climbed Our children will fly from Rushed to the hospital Condition critical Some thought that you would not make it through They didn’t know what I knew This day a ray of hope would be born 2:22’s the time they gave me to you You smiled, my child So bright and I knew Those words I heard, oh yeah, they spoke of you “The mountains we have climbed Our children will fly from” See, the mountains we have climbed Our children will fly from The mountains we have climbed Our children will fly from Waniso, oh Waniso I keep on climbing up (Waniso, oh waniso...) Keep on climbing higher I won’t stop til I reach Til I reach the top Keep on getting up
Keep on climbing higher Keep on going up I keep on climbing for you Do every thing I can do I’ll keep loving for you

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us We ask ourselves, “Who am I to be?” Brilliant and beautiful But actually, who are we not to be? Cause you are a child of god And your playing small doesn’t served the world, no no These are the words of Mandela Mandela, Mandela, Mandela, Mandela, Mandela... There’s nothing enlightened about shrinking So that others won’t feel insecure around you We were born to make manifest A glory of god that is in us It’s not just the sum of us It’s in everyone Mandela, Mandela, Mandela, Mandela, Mandela....

I said I wanna get to the mountain tops So I started getting high But I wasn’t going up I was trying to get to the city of angels Riding on the back of a demon My poison came sweet In a silver cup I was getting high But I wasn’t going up It’s hard to get to where the angels sing If you’re using lead to make wings
