"This Heart Of Mine" lyrics
SOJA & Eric Swanson Lyrics
[E. Swanson:]
I see this vision somewhere in my mind
Humanity and struggles, we got all these hills to climb
This isn't working- well, maybe this one will...
Let's just keep practicing, we've got some time to kill
I see them pushing, when them should be pull
I see them hungry when I know them belly full, and
Just like concrete, so hard, and so cold
We all gon' need a little shelter from the storm
And on your road to Zion
Stop for the broken and battered, they're trying
To break the mold- no storybook told
To inherit the fire, you've gotta get burned
All that we've learned, in the places we go
When the world is too heavy, and lost all control...
Leave all the things that would keep us down
It's all loving now
Nothing but loving now in this heart of mine
In this heart of mine
[J. Hemphill:]
You think you're trouble's what's in front of your face
You the danger is what? Whatever gets in your way
You think the future's just one of your simple plans
And then one day you stop, and maybe think again...
We don't have details on God, we don't know why we are here
But in the darkness sometimes is when it's all really clear
When the night is long, the morning always comes
With all this questioning, answer it with your love
And on your road to Zion
Stop for the broken and battered, they're trying
To break the mold- no storybook told
To inherit the fire, you've gotta get burned
All that we've learned, in the places we go
When the world is too heavy, and lost all control...
Leave all the things that would keep us down
It's all loving now
Nothing but loving now in this heart of mine
In this heart of mine
[T. Young:]
Don't hold back if there are things you wanna say
Can't take for granted when tomorrow is today
Should have done something when you had the chance to take
Won't mean nothing when tomorrow's yesterday
I hear the people, and they're speaking up
The message is: that we need more love
Bring us together now, to make our children proud
Getting through these times, proving that we can make it out
And on your road to Zion
Stop for the broken and battered, they're trying
To break the mold- no storybook told
To inherit the fire, you've gotta get burned
All that we've learned, in the places we go
When the world is too heavy, and lost all control...
Leave all the things that would keep us down
It's all loving now
Nothing but loving now in this heart of mine
It's all loving now
Nothing but loving now
It's all loving now
Nothing but loving now
It's all loving now
Nothing but loving now in this heart of mine
I see this vision somewhere in my mind
Humanity and struggles, we got all these hills to climb
This isn't working- well, maybe this one will...
Let's just keep practicing, we've got some time to kill
I see them pushing, when them should be pull
I see them hungry when I know them belly full, and
Just like concrete, so hard, and so cold
We all gon' need a little shelter from the storm
And on your road to Zion
Stop for the broken and battered, they're trying
To break the mold- no storybook told
To inherit the fire, you've gotta get burned
All that we've learned, in the places we go
When the world is too heavy, and lost all control...
Leave all the things that would keep us down
It's all loving now
Nothing but loving now in this heart of mine
In this heart of mine

It's all loving now
Nothing but loving now
It's all loving now
Nothing but loving now
It's all loving now
Nothing but loving now in this heart of mine
