Spirit

Beloyd talyor & peter cor


So you say you tried
But you just can't find the pleasure
People around you givin' you pressure
Try to resist all the hurt that's all
Around you
If you taste it, it will haunt you

So come, take me by the hand,
We'll leave this troubled land
I know we can, i know we can, i know we can, i know we can
Getaway

Watch for the signs
That lead in the right direction
Not to heed them is a bad reflection
They'll show you the way
Into what you have been seeking
To ignore them you're only cheating

So come, take me by the hand,
We'll leave this troubled land
I know we can getaway
Getaway

Lay awake every night
Till the sun comes up in the morning
Nothing exciting, it all seems boring
Make up your mind which way to go about it
To your road, you just don't doubt it.

So come, take me by the hand,
We'll leave this troubled land
I know we can, i know we can, i know we can, i know we can
Getaway

What does it take to show an illustration
Of the hurt and the pain of a nation.
One glowing look upon a ragged canvas
Tells the story of our past and present situation

That old bush just keeps on burning
Nobody seems to show they're learning
That old bush just keeps on burning.
I wonder will we ever feel the flame.

Our way of life on total exhibition
Shows the way in which we live of an
Imperfect nation.
This tree of life so far from perfeciton
Share a little love to improve our situation.

That old bush just keeps on burning
Share the hope for future learning
I wonder will we ever feel the flame

Flow of light could really stand a listen
Bring the dark to the light, show us
What we've been missing.
Not many men are satisfied
Without no light, there ain't no pride

There's gonna come a time,
Things that are on your mind.
Trust and you will find
Everything in your mind
True love is here to find
Simple as number 9
Multiply you will find
Peace and love all the time.

Many years has passed and a day
Still we walk, in the path
That leads, to the light
Shining down, on this great beyond
Thoughts ignite us, let love unite us
Then turn your face to the wind
And taste his love within

You'll find a friend - everlasting love
You can depend, everytime you smile
You bless a child
Our spirit perpetuates
Our spirit meditates love and faith

We must make our brother see
That the light is he
Shining on you and me
And the land he gave
Roads we must pave
Looking thru each others eyes
Humanity will rise
In love

And our spirit will
Be at one with thee.

Ain't it funny that the way you feel,
Shows on your face-
And no matter,how you try to hide it'll state your case-
Now a frown will bring your sprits down to the ground
And never let you see, the good things all around-
Everytime we seem to let
Our feelings show, our luck-
Run out and the wind won't blow-

But, that can't make me
That can't make me sad
Cause, i've been there before
Don't wanna go no more-

Sadness bears no remedy, for the problems in your life
Won't disappear- this world can't shake me
Bad times can't make me sad
Ole world can't take me
Won't let it drive me mad
While you run your race
Keep a smilin' face-
Help you set your pace
Life is on your case

Wish upon a sunnyday, it'll turn to rain-
Use the sunshine in your heart, to ease the pain-
We wonder, how your attitude is going down-
Is it wakin' and shakin' and safe and sound-
Everytime we seem, let our feelings flo-
Our luck runs out.
And the wind won't blow.

You can't shake me, the way i feel today.
Come tomorrow i'll feel the same way
Wake me! my heart us feeling glad-
I'll take you with me when you're feelin' bad-
