Let It Shine
Ain't nobody better, you simply are the best

All you have to do now is be the who you are
There's a light there within you as bright as any star so..
Let it Shine , (Let it Shine)
Let it Shine , (Let it Shine)
Light up you loving light and let it shine
Let it Shine , (Let it Shine)
Let it Shine , (Let it Shine)
Light up you loving light and let it shine
Ain't nobody better, you're as special as they come
Everything about you its simply number one
No need to be another cos seven oceans wide
Ain’t no body like you - with what you got inside so…
Chorus
Wooah oh oh oh , wooah oh oh oh just let it shine
Wooah oh oh oh , wooah oh oh oh just let it shine
Solo

As One
Everybody
Compassion’s not a fashion
It’s the only way to live
Cos what you get is truly what you give
So live! As Love! And get back in return
A world full of joy – yes every girl and boy!
As One!
Gotta learn how to live, learn how to live - As One! X 3
It only takes a minute, for a tweet, not a week
To infect the minds of millions these days
So think! Before you open that door
And with your words start another war!
As One!
Gotta learn how to live, learn how to live - As One! X 3
Everybody x 4 - Chorus

What Is A World

What Is A World
From living in a cave to living in a box
From hunting on the plains to office blocks
From sticks and stones to atom bombs
From campfire songs to stadiums
We’ve done it all, we’ve come so far
We’ve reached the moon and soon the stars
But what is a world, what good is a world, what use is a world
if it ain’t got love
But what is a world, what good is a world, what use is a world
if it ain’t got love
Ten thousand years, ten thousand more
We’ve fed the rich and starved the poor
From history what have we learnt
What kind of peace has our waring earnt
From walking on the earth to plastic shoes
From camel trains to TV news
From village life to neon lights
From families to Facebook likes

Revolution Of The Heart
Everybody’s talkin’ ‘bout the way things are
Screaming how we need to rearrange
The Ocean’s full of plastic, weather’s getting drastic,
But something so much deeper’s got to change
Ending pollution yes, it’s a start
But storm the barricades that keep us all apart
And see - a brand-new world
be – that brand-new world – where love
Waiting there for you and me
Join the revolution! - of the heart, Join the revolution! - of the heart
Join the revolution – Be a Part
Join the revolution
If you’re feeling angry, ‘bout they way they push you around
Treat you as a number not a face
Tearing down the walls it may make you smile
But what you gonna there put in its place
The solution? – well here’s a start
Storm the barricades that keep us apart……
Do you really understand, the future is in your hands
Make love your revolution!

Ashes For Cash

Ashes For Cash
There’s a fire burning out of control
A deep, deep yearning out of control
Something needs to change, before the flames
Turn this world to…
Ashes for cash, ashes for cash
People’s lives to build their stash
Ashes for cash, ashes for cash
People’s lives to build their stash
The lungs of the world are choking
The oceans of green now smoking
Death is in the air, but still some couldn’t care
Even if it all went up in flames
Ashes…..
‘Til hearts of the world aren’t broken
And truth not lies are spoken
Nothings gonna change, and this just won’t seem strange
As we watch it all go up in flames!

It’s Time
For too long we’ve let it be,
Yes, for too long oh, you and me
We’ve closed our eyes to hate and war
And now its knocking at our door
It’s time – it’s time
To wake up, wake up inside
It’s time, it’s time
To make up, make up your mind
‘bout how you wanna live, and who we wanna give
The rights over our lives
Who we wanna be, what we wanna, do
It’s up, it’s up to you and me
Chorus
Spoken – “It’s time for us to wake up, to make up our minds our minds, about what we want in our lives. The time has come to sit back no more, can’t you hear it knocking at your door!”

My Monkey Mind
My monkey mind, its jumping all over the place
My monkey mind, oh I wish I could replace
My monkey mind and get me some peace
Its driving me mad, it’s making me sad
It won’t sit still, it’s making me ill
Chorus
From the break of day til I sleep at night
It fills my head and though I fight
It won’t let go, no it won’t behave
It’s got me acting like a slave
Chorus

It’s Only Music
Its been the soundtrack to my days
a friend to me in many ways -
All through the laughter and the tears
its always been there through the years
It feels so good, yes it feels so right
It fills my heart and sets my soul alight
Its only music - its only song
But without - you know I just can’t get along
I only have to hear the beat to know what makes my life complete - its like a drug
A day without it I can bear but when its back (there's no compare)
- oh it must be love
It feels so good, yes it feels so right
It fills my heart and sets my soul alight
Its only music - its only song
But without - you know I just can’t get along
Yes in this world of broken dreams confusion and desires
We all need something that’s real
to fill us with a fire
Its only music - its only song
But without - you know we just can’t get along
Its only music, its only song
But without - you know we just can’t get along

The People
What makes this world go round
Black, white, grey or brown
It’s the people -that you meet
The People – not the street
It’s the people – wherever you roam
What makes it all worth while
What makes you wanna smile
It’s the people -that you meet
The People – not the street
It’s the people – that make this world home
In every city, in every town
It’s the same all around
It’s the people …………….
It’s the people…………….
It’s the people - it’s the people
That make this world home
That make this world, that make this world
That make this world home

Love Is A Full Time Job

Love Is A full Time Job
Love is a full-time job
That never feels like work at all
Love is a full-time job
And to get there you’d even crawl
There’s no Monday morning blues
And no Tuesday feeling used
And when it comes to Wednesday
You know it’s just good news
Chorus
And Thursdays just as good
And on Friday you know you would
If they asked you to stay late
Do more than the best you could
Chorus
And Saturday and Sunday, the same
Come sunshine or rain
You’ll be there on time
Just to hear them call your name

Freedom

Freedom
Freedom – give me Freedom - I want Freedom – for my soul Freedom – oh freedom I want - Freedom – from control
To let my spirit fly – higher than the sky
Up above the clouds before my eyes
To let my soul run free – out across the sea
forget about the shackles of my mind
I want see - no more to find
we are all deaf dumb and blind - crying …
Freedom – give me Freedom - I want Freedom – for my soul Freedom – oh freedom I want - Freedom – from control
To open up inside – free the feelings that I hide
Not listen to the voice inside my head (Inside your head, inside…) Like a river flow – ever stronger as I grow
closer to the ocean ahead
Oh to see – no more to find
we are all just flying blind – crying….
Freedom – give me Freedom - I want Freedom – for my soul Freedom – oh freedom I want - Freedom – from control
Oh freedom - give me freedom – sweet freedom – for my soul
Freedom (freedom) give me freedom (freedom) sweet freedom for my soul
Freedom (freedom) give me freedom (freedom) I want freedom for my soul
Freedom for the heart, freedom for the soul
Freedom for the powers the powers that control

The Immigrant
I come to flee the famine, I come to flee the war
I come on boats and trains, to sleep outside your door
I come in my millions, across the raging sea
I come to build a better world for you and for me
Just look at my face, I was once like you, safe within my borders, doing what I do
Just look at me now, this was not my choice, losing my home, losing my voice
I am the immigrant, I come from far off shores
looking for some peace - not to ruin yours
The immigrant, simply trying to find
Something in this world I can call mine
I left my home with nothing – but the clothes upon my back
My heart and my history along a bloody track
I left before they killed me, I left before I died
Along with my brother, oh lord how I cried
Look at my face, I was once like you, safe within my borders, doing what I do
Look at me now, this was not my choice, losing my home, losing my voice
They came to flee the famine, they came to flee the war
They came on ships in chains, to pick the cotton raw
Our fathers in their millions, across the raging sea
But came and built a better world for you and for me
We are the immigrants, we’re all from distant shores
Tell me my story is not the same as yours
Immigrants looking to be free
Look at yourself before you deal me
We’re all immigrants, come from far off shores
Just trying to find a home – Not to steal yours
The immigrant, simply trying to find
Something in this world we can call ‘mine’

Soul Food For The Hungry
Theres so many people dying
Not just victims of war
Starving, on the inside
Trying simply to score … a little
Soul Food for the hungry
Soul Food for the poor
Hope to feed the many who just can't take, can’t take it no more
Everywhere you look you will find us
Desperate for freedom from pain
Millions sick of all the taking
Again, again and again … crying
Soul Food for the hungry (we need)
Soul Food for the poor
Food to feed the many who just can't take
can’t take it no more
Can't you see it in the eyes of the children
see them brainwashed and ready at four
We need
Soul Food for the hungry
Soul Food for the poor
Hope to feed the many who just can't take it no more
Crying
Soul Food for the hungry
Soul Food for the poor
Free us from the lying
give us dignity once more

Make Love Not War

Make Love Not War
No child is ever born with a gun, no infant with hate in its eyes
No killer was no not once a babe in arms, yes, we all learn what we become –
Every sinner is taught how to sin, each criminal shown how to steal
The world we create it teaches us hate
We are guilty and victim as one
But is it all just fated or do we have the chance to change…and
Make love, not war
Make love, not war
Teach our children not the same, not to do it all again…and
Make love, love not war
Your enemy was once but a soft, helpless and speechless thing
With nothing but love in its eyes, we taught them everything
Did they set out to hate you, to fill you with fear
Or get caught in the wake of this ship we don’t steer…..
But is is all just…
Chorus
Make love (make love) Make Love (make love) Make Love (make Love) not war
