Sista Earth
Words & Music Seraya Young (Copyright 2002)
Verse 1
Just last week, I said to a friend
I wish I was in the 50’s, 60,s 70’s, so much going on then
When I got home, I turned on theTV
And it blew my mind to find we were right on the verge of WWIII
CHORUS
So put on your courage, shake off that apathy
Now’s the time to redefine your priorities
Can you hear Sista Earth?
She cries, “Please put those weapons down,
If you blow my heart and sink my shores
We’ll all be going down”
Don’t wanna be going down
Verse 2
We lost our heart and soul in the race for power and technology
In the quest for Bigger, Better, Brighter, lost sight of you and me
Lets return to the real and true….oh sweet simplicity
Cos baby, I’m connected to you, and you’re connected to me
CHORUS
Can you hear Sista Earth?
She cries, “Please put those weapons down,
If you blow my heart and sink my shores
We’ll all be going down”
Don’t wanna be going down
BRIDGE
Spirit of Peace, help us see, Spirit of Love, visit us
Spirit of Peace, help us see, Spirit of Love, visit us
Be still and listen, We gotta be still and listen
Come on, be still and listen
CHORUS
Can you hear Sista Earth?
She cries“Please put those weapons down,
If you blow my heart and sink my shores
We’ll all be going down”
So c’mon, put on your courage, shake off that apathy
Take my Hand, we’ll make a stand
Its time to hold our ground
We can turn this ship around
We’re not going down.
