It Is Criminal To Put Our Servicemen

When I Listen To My Favorite Songwriters, They Have Such Simple Melodies And Chords. I Occasionally Manage To Stop At The Right Time, But All Too Often I Keep On Going Until I Have Way Too Many Notes And Words. But That's Just What I Do.

Lying On The Roof Counting The Stars That Fill The Sky I Wonder If Someone In The Heavens Looking Back Down On Me I'll Never Know So Much Space To Believe

I Think We Have To Be Active In Teaching Our Children, And Teaching Each Other. We Have To Be Active About Kindness And About Peace. I've Always Fantasized That It Would Be Great If There Was A Department Of Peace. We Have A Military, But What If There Was A Department Devoted Entirely And Truthfully To Finding Peaceful Resolutions?

It's So Hard For Me To Even Acknowledge America Without Talking About Race. If You Look At Our Society, If You Look At The Prisons, If You Look At The Poverty And Which Side Of The Line The Majority Of People Are, We Have To Acknowledge How We Divide Ourselves Up, That There's Racism Alive In This Country. And It's Not In The Law. It's In Our Minds. And That's What We Have To Actively Battle.

I Hope That Just What I Sing About And How I Relate To My Audience Is As Much Of A Political Statement As I Need To Make.
