SkyTigers

(album: SkyTigers - 2018)

Hammer on my six-string like a loser
Calling what I do art, like there's a future
When I know that it's nothing that I can rely on
But, at least I'm happy and hey, that's something'

There's so many people never knowing
What happiness is, and it's showing
In the way that they treat themselves and the world
I think it's tragic to ignore the magic

I extend my hand as a friend and a lover
I extend my hand as a son, as a brother
If we don't take time and help one another
We are destined for failure and won't get to discover
There's a great new world out there we can explore
We don't have to hurt if we don't want to no more
When there is no justice, we silenced the truth
Tell me how the red, white and blue look to you

Because all I can see is a hate, lies and negativity and it sickens me

And I would never stop to smell the roses
'Cause I never thought long what that proposes
It means enjoy the beauty in every moment
'Cause every moment could be our last one, it's true...

I know it feels like time is an enemy to you
Like there's nothing good that you can do
I know exactly what you're going through

And I extend my hand as a friend and a lover
I extend my hand as a son, as a brother
If we don't take time and listen to each other
We are destined for failure and won't get to discover
There's a great big world out there we can explore
And we don't have to hurt if we don't want to no more
In this wild world, where life is always strange
Take a deep breath and let yourself embrace the change

I'm sorry, but I don't want to be an emperor
That's not my business
I don't want to rule or conquer anyone
I should like to help everyone if possible
We all want to help one another
Human beings are like that
We want to live by each other's happiness
Not by each other's misery
We don't want to hate and despise one another
In this world, there is room for everyone
And the good earth is rich and can provide for everyone
The way of life can be free and beautiful
For those who can hear me, I say do not despair

The hate of men will pass, and dictators die
And the power they took from the people will return to the people
Don't give yourselves to brutes, men who despise you, enslave you
Tell you what to do, what to think and what to feel
Don't give yourselves to these unnatural men
Machine men with machine minds and machine hearts
You are not machines, you are not cattle, you are men!
And you! You, the people, have the power
The power to create machines, the power to create happiness
You, the people, have the power
To make this life a wonderful adventure
Now let us fight to fulfill that promise
Let us fight to free the world
To do away with national barriers
To do away with greed, with hate and intolerance
Brutes have risen to power. But they lie!
They do not fulfill that promise. They never will!
You have the love of humanity in your hearts!
You don't hate! Only the unloved hate; the unloved and the unnatural
Let us all unite!

Let us fight for a world of reason
A world where science and progress will lead to all men's happiness
Let us fight for a new world!
A decent world
Let us all unite!
