Growing up as just a young child My parents spoke of god In the pews of the church Christian sermons and applause Board of schools separated, Either catholic or protestant Forced to choose, pick a side Now I'm ever more cognizant Of division, in this world People clinging on faith Praising Allah, or Mohammed While projecting their hate Self - righteous bureaucratic criminals Disguised in their suits Pushing propaganda slogans Aimed to cover the truth Either with us or against us Refugees fight or flight Building walls, burning bridges In the end we all unite You see, your creed is yours alone Others can try to persuade Their beliefs and ideals Just illusions, a charade Of reality, a veil Understanding is the question Monks, philosophers been asking Gurus practicing the lesson Comfort from the suffering Hope to vanquish fear Guidance in this waking life We've come to hold so dear I am one, I am one You are the same I am one, I am one You are the same I am the one, you are the same We come from the source, have power to change If we listen real close, the spirit will guide us home The spirit will guide us home The spirit will guide us home The spirit will guide us home The spirit will guide us home Home Home Home Home Home Home Home In the name of god, help us What have we become When the chosen are few There's only freedom for some We've come undone to conditioning Holding on to images Rama, Krishna, Christ Same love and it is limitless One cannot contain the ethos Claim it or possess Yet fundamentalists preaching heresy Then use it to oppress We're all trying to get by Same mission, called survival Believe in what you will, Quran, Torah or the bible And I hope you will have the patience To listen to this Communication can be difficult Words how they twist The meanings always so definite Some pre conceived notion Translating the gospel Idol worship devotion The cross, the whole structure And all the pain behind it The rituals and dogma Lost seekers try find it Comfort from the suffering Hope to vanquish fear Guidance in this waking life We've come to hold so dear I am one, I am one You are the same I am one, I am one You are the same I am the one, you are the same We come from the source, have power to change If we listen real close, the spirit will guide us home The spirit will guide us home The spirit will guide us home The spirit will guide us home The spirit will guide us home Home Home Home Home Home Home Home Why should one set of values Be the paradigm for all of us Forcing way of being Has done more harm than good We need to trust The ending of sorrow Is the beginning of wisdom Together we can rise From the ashes, our kingdom Since dawn of time, story go Rise and fall, domino Enslaving minds, reign supreme It's been the ruin of regime We test faith and pass blame Label scapegoats and proclaim Our views as truth, so absolute Socratic notion prosecute To err is human, to forgive divine Absolving of our sins Allows true nature to align With something greater, peace It starts with inner harmony Serenity it radiates Surrendering the armory Knowledge is always Within the shadow of ignorance Pilgrimages, forsaken places Prayers for deliverance Comfort from the suffering Hope to vanquish fear Guidance in this waking life We've come to hold so dear I am one I am one I am one I am one I am one I am one I am one, I am one You are the same I am one, I am one You are the same I am one, I am one You are the same
