None of Them Are You

You're a painting with symbols deep, A symphony, soft as it shifts to dark beneath A poem that flows, caressing my skin In all of these things you reside and I want to flow from the pen, bow, and brush, Then paper, string, and canvas touch With ink and the air to dust your light From morning 'til the black of night This is my call, I belong to you This is my call, to sing the melody of you This is my call, I can do nothing else I can do nothing else You're the scent of an unfound bloom A simple tune, I only write variation to A drink that will knock me down on the floor A key that will unlock the door Where I hear a voice sing familiar themes Then beckons me weave notes in between A bow and a string, a tap and a glass You pour me, 'til the day has passed This is my call, I belong to you This is my call, to sing the melody of you This is my call, I can do nothing else I can do nothing else

You better listen my brothers 'Cause if you do you can hear There are voices still calling across the years They're all crying across the ocean And they're crying across the land And they will till we all come to understand None of us are free None of us are free None of us are free, if one of us is chained None of us are free When there are people in darkness And babies can't see the light If we don't say it's wrong then that says it right We got try to feel for each other Let our brothers know that we care Got to get the message, send it out loud and clear None of us are free None of us are free None of us are free, if one of us is chained None of us are free It's a simple truth we all need to see None of us are free, if one of us is chained None of us are free Now I swear your salvation isn't too hard too find None of us can find it on our own We've got to join together in spirit, heart and mind So that every soul who's suffering will know they're not alone (None of us are free) (None of us are free) If you just look around you You're gonna see what I say 'Cause the world is getting smaller each passing day Now it's time to making some changes Now it's time for us all to realize That the truth is shining real bright right before our eyes None of us are free None of us are free None of us are free, if one of us is chained None of us are free It's a very hard Of humanity None of us are free, if one of us is chained None of us are free (None of us, none of us) none of us (None of us, none of us, none of us) none of us (None of us, none of us) oh none of us (none of us are free) Now, you hear me (None of us, none of us) I say (None of us, none of us, none of us) (None of us, none of us) if one of us is chained (none of us are free) None of us are free (None of us, none of us) I mean (None of us, none of us, none of us) oh none of us (None of us) nobody, none of us are free None of us are free (None of us, none of us) none of us are free (None of us, none of us) none of us are free, if one of us is chained None of us are free None of us are free (none of us, none of us) None of us are free (none of us, none of us) None of us are free (none of us) if one of us is chained None of us are free

You always go to the parties To pluck the feathers off all the birds On your knees I would not beg you please I want your picture but not your words You know they'd want it, but there's no first On your own You cannot call it your home We always rub our hands too much We know the reasons, but such and such On your own You will not catch your own bone We run our fingers together You know it's easy, the devil's plan On your own You cannot call me your own Jack of all trades Master of none Cry all the time 'Cause I'm not having fun You always want to be forgiven The devil does what you ask of him On your knees You cannot, you are not for free
