What It Is

Give it up to this planet full of strife

Take down your mental fences, it's my song of life

Accept your deeper senses there will be no fright

A never ending orchestra of perfect insight

Surround your mortal being with a halo of light

The animated aura global delight

Soon your every single folly will be out of sight

With the power of it we are about to astound

All your preconceptions they may come unbound

Listen very close my inner voice expounds

We are the human race and we groove to the sound

Deliver the truth through a musical verse

Our soul shocking sounds will electrify the earth

People have to know that it's not about money

Cash is not the way to make your life sunny

There is no need if you've got the soul seed

Love life and peace it can only begin

When you know in your heart sun shines from within

Love all your brothers and love all your sisters

Love all your misses and love all your misters

Don't be shy when you're sharing your kisses

'cause jealousy gets boos and hisses

What it is, What it is

So much to be found

What it is, What it is

What a groovy sound

What it is, What it is

What is in a song

What it is, What it is

You can do no wrong

Balance your life with the right kind of food

To eat a sad cow is to eat another dude

It's an unfair act and will give you voodoo

It will put your karma in the worst of moods

So will drinking booze or taking too many 'ludes

'Cuz when you pop drugs you cop an attitude

It's an ugly fake, it's not the real you

So please you all take some sound advice

Be yourself clear your heart make a sacrifice

The always sober you is especially nice

What it is, What it is...

Don't pollute don't shoot give comet the boot

I'd rather kick back play my bamboo flute

Refuse to fight wars for political whores

I'm rather riding in on my favorite horse

It is my notion that the perfect peace potion

Can be found in the wake of the green sea's motion

The long rocking swell of the mighty blue ocean

Is the cradle of peace, the perfect peace potion

There you will find it with the sweet sea creatures

The smile of a dolphin is a built in feature

You will learn much peace with the whale as your teacher

Good morning class, how very nice to meet ya

What it is, What it is...

Open up your hearts to the planets and the stars

Let your spirit take a trip from Venus to Mars

You know, Einstein did while Hitler hit

Now Albert lives forever in every single kid

But with Adolph Hitler we are permanently rid

Picasso, Mr. Dali and my man Jimi Hendrix

These cool brothers make the world go 'round

Yeah they do it with art and Jimi did it with sound

But all these men it was found

That they were not any more so earth bound

Don't let the racist ways give us more and more delays

Stand up for equal rights be like the burning lights

Go and spread the word from town to town

We are the human race and up we go you clown

Now that you've heard what is in our song

From here on in you can do no wrong
