a lyrical manifesto for large-hearted living.

 

 

Walk through life

Beautiful more than anything

Stand in the sunlight

Walk through life

Love all the things

That make you strong,

be lovers, be anything

For all the people

of Earth

 

You have brothers

You love each other, change up

And look at the world

Now, it’s

Our’s, take it slow

We’ve got a long time,

a long way To go,

 

We have

Each other,

and the World,

Don’t be sorry

Walk on out through sunlight life

and know We’re on the go

For love

To open

Our lives

To walk

Tasting

the sunshine

Of Life.
