lyrics

Take me back to where I came this place is not for me.
Can't get by with help from my friends, don't know what I believe.
They said there'd be fields of fruit, like gold upon the trees.
Instead these dusty eyes see hungry families.

Of all the people we have faith in you.
It's not too much if you speak the truth.
But we know that's not enough. Cause times are tough.
We must do our part, we must stand up.
We must speak out & not give up.

Fill your ships with all your goods and send em off to sea.
Cast away into the new that great blue mystery.
Ya come across a land you've seen in your thoughts & your dreams.
Well if ya know what you're here for then just follow me.

Optimism is what we need
And Madoff can have his greed.
But we know that's not enough. Cause times are tough.
We must do our part, we must stand up.
We must speak out & not give up.
