Lyrics Gil Scott-Heron

Gil Scott-Heron

Beginnings

Mmmmm

We're sliding through

Completely new

Beginnings

We're searching out

Our every doubt

We're winning

We want to be free

Yet we have no idea

Why we are struggling here

Faced with our every fear

Just to survive

We've heard the sound

And come around

To listening

We've touched the vine

Time after time

Insisting

We know what life brings

Still we can find a way

From dues we've got to pay

We hope we'll somehow say

That we're alive

We're sliding through

Completely new

Beginnings

We're searching

Our every doubt

And winning

We want to be free

Yet we have no idea

Why we are struggling here

Faced with our every fear

Just to survive

Completely new (2x)

Beginnings

Completely new (2x)

Beginnings
