lyrics

9. All In This Together

Don’t hate me cuz Im different
Don’t diss me cuz I’m old
Don’ fight with me over nothing
If I’m hot or if I’m cold
Don’t hate me - I got no money
Don’t give up on me - I’m stuck
My color is my blindness
It’s stronger than a crutch

There’s something goin’ on
Ya feel it in your bones
What’s up for you is up for me
+ the planet’s getting smaller
everyday
Wr all in this together baby
Wr all in the same boat
Wr all in this together babe
Or we’re going up in smoke

Don’t blame it on yr Daddy
Or the Mom you never had
Or the trials or the silence
or the darkness in this land
Cuz I believe in silver lining
I believe in having dreams
I believe in you + me my friend
We can balance on this beam

CHORUS

A rock into a pond they say a tiny ripple grows + rises like a tidal wave revolution only knows No matter how you cut it or agree to disagree this place belongs to all of us like the roots that ground the trees
