MOVE UP TO THE LIGHT

Move up to the light and let’s get it right

The spirit’s weak and there’s a chance it may never recover
In a land where brother should live next to brother
And the fields that once grew the vine now are as mud
And the streams that once flowed like wine now are as blood
Move up to the light and let’s get it right

And now dark clouds have appeared over on our horizon
What’s right is wrong, but I guess that’s not really surprising
The endless greed of the few who control our tomorrows
Place their own needs above those who each day endure sorrows
Move up to the light and let’s get it right

If we learn to bend we will not break
Though the storm keeps raging on
With the future in our hands at stake
Lose your grip and then it’s gone

The seeds of change fertilised, sown and grown in our own minds
Ideas exchanged until all our opinions are entwined
Tossed on the swell like a cork on a vast deep dark ocean
Billions of thoughts firing off on the breeze now in motion
Move up to the light and let’s get it right

If we learn to bend we will not break
Though the storm keeps raging on
