lyrics
Sacred Spirits
It’s our Babies that have the Sacred Spirits
And we should hear it, everytime we’re near them
We have a Job to do, s don’t you Fear it
The path for them, we’re supposed to clear it
Each child has a Sacred Spirit
Their souls are singing, So I hope you hear them
Our job is not to Fear them,
But to make sure nothing Bad gets near them
Our Babies have sacred spirits, Our children have Sacred Spirits
Our Babies have sacred spirits, Our children have Sacred Spirits
Yo..Our elders and ancestors used to say
It was the babies we should worship EVERYDAY
It’s the children who were blessed, because they came back first
And Anyone who touched the children would be eternally cursed
Yo, the babies are the ancestors and closest to GOD
And OUR JOB was to keep their lives from being hard
And ONLY for our children, should we go to war
For, without them, we wouldn’t exist Anymore
But, Yo in this day and time, something has changed
And I’m looking at the world like everything’s Strange
I see our children getting abused, when they don’t behave
Molested and worked like a bunch of slaves
Tortured and killed almost everywhere
Used as weapons, by parents who really don’t care
The children are the future and the sincerest
Little gifts from THE UNIVERSE with sacred spirits
It’s our Babies that have the Sacred Spirits
And we should hear it, everytime we’re near them
We have a Job to do, s don’t you Fear it
The path for them, we’re supposed to clear it
Each child has a Sacred Spirit
Their souls are singing, So I hope you hear them
Our job is not to Fear them,
But to make sure nothing Bad gets near them
LOVE IS BORN, EVERYTHING ELSE IS TAUGHT
So why are the children getting bombed and shot
Is this how we teach em, by showing them hate?
Do we truly Educate or just indoctrinate?
A Clear glass of water is what the Universe sees
With Unlimited potential and infinite possibilities
Waiting to learn how to relate to others
Their eyes and their hearts don’t see races nor colors
But, we’re teaching them How to kill instead of heal
And we’re showing them how to act fake and not real
They watch us disrespect Nature and Humanity
And learn our Addictions, prejudices and insanities
Damn, they could co create a worlld that really works
If they weren’t getting tainted, miseducated and hurt
It’s like we’re driving the Yellow Bus, but don’t know how to steer it
Cause we’re the one’s guiding and directing thier little spirits
It’s our Babies that have the Sacred Spirits
And we should hear it, everytime we’re near them
We have a Job to do, s don’t you Fear it
The path for them, we’re supposed to clear it
Each child has a Sacred Spirit
Their souls are singing, So I hope you hear them
Our job is not to Fear them,
But to make sure nothing Bad gets near them
Is it The violence On T.V., the Movies and Games ?
The Wars and Greed, the bombs and planes ?
The Lack of Love we show others everyday ?
How we see The unfortunate and look the other way ?
The Drug Dependiencies, The Hypocrisy?
The Government Policies, Lack of Democracy ?
The fighting and bickering and telling each other lies
While our children see it, all through Virgin eyes
This is what makes our children grow up in a rush
And turn into mirror images of us
They Reflect our consciousness, or lack there of
They BECOME all of our hate, or MAGNIFY our Love
We are here to DIRECT them, RESPECT them, or PROTECT them
Not to NEGLECT them, SEX them or INFECT them
The World is a Song and they are the lyrics
For, the only Hope we have for WORLD PEACE can fbe found in their spirits...
It’s our Babies that have the Sacred Spirits
And we should hear it, everytime we’re near them
We have a Job to do, s don’t you Fear it
The path for them, we’re supposed to clear it
Each child has a Sacred Spirit
Their souls are singing, So I hope you hear them
Our job is not to Fear them,
But to make sure nothing Bad gets near them
