| Title: |
Become |
| Artist: |
Gabriel Keller
|
| Description: |
A fun semi rocking melodic ditty
|
| Notes: |
The song that made me cry was we shall overcome. Pete Seeger wrote it 40 years ago. Have we overcome yet?
This song is about hope for epiphanies, transformations, personal and world-wide ones.

| Lyrics: |
All the little monkeys
know the names of the stars
But the heavy-hearted look on
and shake their heads
Today could be that day
the one you've been waiting for
the one where you
tie up all your loose ends
And you Become
the moon and sun
the tears and the stars are pushing you on
And you Become
daughter and son
here by the star that we all call the suuuuuuuun
Here's a little seedling
plant it deep in the ground
And maybe someday if we're patient
it will see the sky
You know it reminds me of a song that
made me cry
Just the fact that we're still waiting for
A time when we'll Become
a tree that reaches the sun
the tears and the stars are pushing us on
And we'll Become
six billion of One
here by the star that we all call the suuuuuuuun
Shelter turns to storm
and waves wash away
the sandcastles on the shore
and you're shipwrecked
with a faulty oar
and the chain around your neck
is dragging you down
to the ocean floor
But someday...
We'll all Become
the moon and sun
the tears and the stars are pushing us on
And we'll Become
daughter and son
the tears and the stars are pushing us on
And we'll Become
and drop our guns
the tears and the stars are showing us love
and we'll become
what we started from
the tears and the stars are singing our song
And I'll become and you'll become
And he'll become and she'll become
And we'll become and we'll become.
