I am the white side of the sun
Follow the beat across the light
Father of the one
I am the black gold of the sun
I am the black gold of the sun

I am the the dark side of the sun
Shadows that light up the day
Darkness shadow all the way
I am the black gold of the sun
I am the black gold of the sun

I am the tall oak tree
I am the jungle stream
I am the morning sun ha ha ha
Smiling over everyone
I am the shining sea
I am the mountain high
I am a man so free (I am the black gold of the sun)

I am the tall oak tree
I am the jungle stream
I am the morning sun ha ha ha
Smiling over everyone
I am the shining sea
I am the mountain high
I am a man so free (I am the black gold of the sun)
