Lyrics Cat Stevens

Cat Stevens

100 I Dream

They brang us up with horns and hollywooden songs

Dead snakes and poisoned wisdoms between our teeth

The evil that's been done still is carrying on

And on this night there'll be no peace

The old leaders' bones still beat on our homes

They built our life before us, we had no choice

The evil that's been done still is carrying on

And when they're gone we'll be the voice

Blue bird on a rock, slow wind blowing soft

Across the bare face of the sleeping lake

Rise up and be free, voice whispered to me

And in this way you will awake

Go climb up on a hill, stand perfectly still

And silently soak up the day

Don't rush and don't you roam, don't feel so alone

And in this way you will awake

And in this way you will awake

And this way you will awake

Pick up the pieces you see before you

Don't let your weaknesses destroy you

You know wherever you go the world will follow

So let your reasons be true to you

Stay close to your friends up until the end

And when they know that you feel the same way

Rise up and be free and die happily

And in this way you will awake

And in this way you will awake

And this way you will awake
