Let Them Hear You

 


And say to those who blame us

For the way we chose to fight
That sometimes there are battles
That are more than black or white...


And I could not put down my sword
When justice was my right
Make them hear you


Go out and tell our story
To your daughters and your sons
Make them hear you
Make them hear you

And tell them, in our struggle
We were not
 the only ones
Make them hear you
Make them hear you

Your sword can be a sermon
Or the power of the pen
Teach every child to raise his voice
And then, my brothers, then

Will justice be demanded
By ten million righteous men
Make them hear you
When they hear you
I'll be near you
Again

Love is Pleasin'




I wish, I wish, I wish in vain


I wish, I wish I was a youth again


But a youth again I can never be


Till the apples grow on an ivy tree...


And love and porter makes a young man older

And love and whiskey makes him old and grey

And what can't be cured, love, has to be endured, love

the Climb



 There's always gonna be another mountain

I'm always gonna wanna make it moveAlways gonna be an uphill battleSometimes you're gonna have to loseAin't about how fast I get thereAin't about what's waiting on the other sideIt's the climb

If This Is the End




 Look at how the candles flicker in the window

Look at how the leaves are turning gold out on the trees
Sounds a little corny, a little like john denver
But the turning of the seasons gives me something to believe in
So if this is the end
There’s nowhere I’d rather be
No one I’d rather see the end with
Tell God on his throne to leave us alone
If this is the end
