lyrics

some say the end of the world is near no love ahead but only fear I have no answer to give you there's no more faith here let the weak pass on for strong let no hope pass as wrong and if I live a thousand years then you may call me shah ram want to live to see the death of human law and the healing of the earth whose wounds are raw want to gather my children and great grand children and wait for the hand of god when the food of my soul is song then nine hundred years won't be too long if I am blessed with a mortal crown then you may call me shah ram may one day all people live with justice peace and love may one day all men lay humbled and see new stairways above may life for all be unending with destitution extinct may I hold fast this to this mortal chalice
to give the prophet a drink bless all the world for a thousand years til then I will be shah ram
