The world has so much beauty,
so much that's worth pursuing
So much I haven't truly discovered
Believe me, I'ma do it, no,
There's so much to be done,
still so much that needs to do it
But baby, that's the journey,
sweetheart, don't get discouraged
Cause you the one that told me
that we have a higher pur pose
Inside I feel a churning,
bubbling below the surface
that pulls us towards emergence
The world just keeps on turning,
lately I've seen a resurgence
Of compassion, love, and mercy,
people at each other's service
Sweetheart, don't get discouraged,
one thing I know for cer tain
Is that we have a higher purpose,
Ooh, it isn't that I didn't want
I didn't want to make my turn
Pa tience calls, but will I ever learn?
The world has so much balance
The world's become so violent
I ain't gotta spell it out
Sometimes I feel so gallant
Sometimes I feel so shallow
Just when you think it's damaged,
beyond the point of salvage
The universe corrects itself
and stores the proper bal ance
The world is just a canvas,
different colors on the palette
Darker people getting lighter,
lighter people getting browner
I see a world more balanced
I don't see us as an island
Sometimes our fate is challenged,
that's when we face the mountain
or we rally and make it happen
Ooh, it isn't that I didn't want
I didn't wanna wait my turn
All the way from the Bay Area,
Lateek the Truth Speaker, Trackademics,
and all my occupiers out there,
C -Holiday, you know we had to re mix it.
