I was on my way to sing I met the one who can not do without me His whole intent is to burn my patience But when he came to know that I sing The policeman would not let go I said "what do you know of my art?" He forced me to sing so I could be free I sing for the stones beneath my feet I sing for the child that smiled in the street I sing to lighten the load of the wind I sing to appease the demons within I don't need to sing to prove my existence I don't need to sing to fight your indifference I sing for the lessons the world hasn't learned I sing for my soul as she watches it burn I sing as the trees grow branches above And I don't need a reason to love I am standing barefoot on empty fields My head is spinning, refusing to heal I don't have the strength to contain the weight of the years Everything is mixing within me, night and day Now I must force my limbs I must unify my heart, my head, and my hands This is the moment to rise and purify the wounds To share the pain and decide to reconcile I sing for the stones beneath my feet I sing for the child that smiled in the street I sing to lighten the load of the wind I sing to appease the demons within I don't need to sing to prove my existence I don't need to sing to fight your indifference I sing for the lessons the world hasn't learned I sing for my soul as she watches it burn I sing as the trees grow branches above And I don't need a reason to love Sometimes I fear that I won't make a change, That my voice won't be heard because I'll be afraid, We need to rise up, and sing for our pain, But I'm feeling lost, can I be shown the way? My voice is hurting from calling I'm tired of singing and talking I cant see change, even a small change But I don't mean by this that I will surrender My friends are with me on the journey, fighting Together we will finish the struggle and cross over For all the young people I'm telling you, don't, don't leave Stay in your country, it has good in it - try. Show me the way Baseless love I want my voice to be heard I want to be free (We stick together, together we struggle) Baseless love My voice is hurting And my freinds are with me on the journey, fighting Don't leave I don't need a reason to love
