about

he taught me to be a global citizen.

lyrics

Verse:

You feel the pale blue dot spinning again

Rotations of a marble free floating on the cosmic winds.

Its scary ain't it?

Maybe a better word's "exhilarating"

careening through the cosmos with a lasso round our last hopes

for real

I used to feel no bigger than an average anthill in the face of the vastness of space

a bad deal

cruel existence trick, noticed cause Im sentient,

can anything have purpose when the earth just seems so purposeless?

Then bang,

not big but a small change

started reading books by Carl Sagan round the 10th grade

They were strange and shed some light

gave me size like overnight

internalized some quotes

that gave importance to my life

(Chorus)

Drea:

Crashing through the universe,
Looking for your space,
Madness written in your veins,
Searching for the proper words,
to write about your race,
madness written in your veins....

verse 2:

Everyone of us is precious,

Even the ones you disagree with still contribute to the cosmic perspective

Lets elect to respect this

Well get to watch each other flourish feel the tendrils of the universe be nourished

the weight of kindness tends to tip the scales

theres not a hint that help will come from elsewhere in order to save us from ourselves

as below then so above

we have to know its up to us

for small creatures such as we

this life is bearable only through love

as the cosmic dust calls to us

remain curious to its wealth

we are the universe universe experiencing itself

trust imagination like a rocket ship

go beyond your own wealth

(Chorus)

Verse 3:

life

flight

perilous

sight

fright

might

stare at us tonight

like hi

from the sky

who are you?

who am i?

we be we

so dont cry

utilize

yours is mine

laid to rest

then we rise

in distress

so am i

we be we

internalize

that fact

what was that

another

butterfly

effect

stay calm

no alarm

with my arms

ill protect

you stars

thats forever

we be we

fading clever

in this

ultimate endeavor

secretley

each others treasure

like a baby

or

the fossil

not benign

never hostel

just indifferent

like our father

we be we

ever larger

utterly

the same martyr

(Chorus)

I was born.
A pebble.
A pestilence.
The sickness
in the rock,
it formed
a skeleton.
Crystalized thoughts,
adorned,
with melanin.
The sands
in the clock,
They tick
and they tock,
ya dig? ... more
