From the recording One World
I re-recorded the vocals on this track because I changed a few of the lyrics. The song was originally on the Naked Hearts self titled cd. All the instrumental tracks are from the original recording with Chris Smith (guitar, pedal steel) and Andrew Diaz Jr. (percussion) and myself, (guitar, bass, vocals).
Lyrics
One World
Now the time has come, we can no longer look back
Time to make some changes, get on the right path
We’re not the only ones in this beautiful world
I hope it’s not too late
There’s just no gettin’ around it
Time to realize one world
We’re all living in one world...ready or not
One world
We’ve got to share one world
You know we’re in charge of the future we face
We’ve made a lot of mistakes...this human race
I hope we’ve got the time to turn this world around
But we need some new attitudes...and we need them now
Time to realize one world
We’re all living in one world...ready or not
One world
We’ve got to share one world...you and I
It’s more than black and white, red yellow or brown
All one life, no savior to be found
We’re all the same inside, walk the same ground
Breathe the same air
There’s just no gettin’ around it
Time to realize one world
We’re all livin’ in one world...ready or not
One world
We’ve got to share one world...you and I
