  • Should I close my eyes and prophesize, hoping maybe someday come?
    Should I wet the ground with my old tears, cryin' over whats been done?
    Should I lift the dirt and plant the seed even tho I've never grown?
    Should I wet the ground with the sweat from my brown

    And believe in my good work?
    Hey there, I'm flying up above
    Lookin' down on the tired earth
    But I can see I can see potential
    Speaking through you, speaking to you
    From all of heavens possibility
    Power, hey do you know how it works?
    Hey do you know that the meek, they shall inherit the earth?
    But you should work, for the self and the family
    Should I hit the water or stay on dry land, even tho I never swam?
    Take machete into the brush, though at first there is no path
    Taste the warpaint on my tongue as it's drippin' with my sweat
    Place my gaze in the futures path, seein' things that aint come yet

    Hope to watch the victory dance after the days work is done
    Hope to watch the victory dance in the evenings setting sun
    Hope to watch the victory dance over many lives to come
    Hope to watch the victory dance in the evenings setting sun
    Hope to dance the victory dance after the days work is done
    Hope to dance the victory dance in the evenings setting sun
    Hope to dance the victory dance over many lives to come
    Hope to dance the victory dance in the evenings setting sun Writer/s: James Edward Olliges Jr
