Children of Light Songtext

von Yes

Distant as the distant thunder
Where equal rights will rent asunder
Equal rights for equal people
A disregard for loves equality
Bringing back the signs to no mans land
Where diamonds and gold in hand
Will barter as the homeless burn
Someday will it be our turn

Why this consciousness, this desire, to expand the flame of revolution
With your public hand of fire, persecution, blood letting and spinning pain

Why this hungry media delivery
Questions answers plus forgivers
Billions of racial inequalities
We all are one, all are sacred
Be the birth of a nation
Stop this aggrevation
So uninspired as to question imagine humanity
And lack of love for his cosmic guard

Children of light don't be afraid
Children of light haven' tyou heard
Gone are the days in black and white
Children of light don't be afraid

Distant as the distant thunder
Where equal rights will rent asunder
Equal rights for equal people
A disregard for loves equality
Bringing back the signs to no mans land
Where diamonds and gold in hand
Will barter as the homeless burn
Someday will it be our turn
Someday will it be our turn
Someday will it be our turn

Children of light don't be afraid
Children of light haven't you heard
Gone are the days in black and white
Children of light don't be afraid
