They talk of devastation, of war and poverty
But I don’t hear them talkin’ of peace and sovereignty
Why can’t we see just how simple it is
To live with mother nature, the take and the give
Chorus:
Just remember. . . that what you sow is what you will grow (x2)
I’m sowing the seeds of a new world (x4)
They talk of desolation, of fear and loneliness
But I don’t hear them talkin’ of love and holiness
Why in the world do we pretend it’s so hard
To love one another, unconditional regard
Chorus:
Just remember. . . that what you sow is what you will grow (x2)
I’m sowing the seeds of a new world (x4)

Sowing the Seeds
Ahh, the simple truths, coming thru a newly-awakened youth...

You are a Star
Another really cute one. About the power of Spirit to inspire from within...
Ain’t nobody told me who to be
Ain’t nobody taught me how to see
No matter what they said
It didn’t make no difference till I changed my head
Cuz you gotta be open to the words that are spoken
How can I teach you if I cannot reach you
You’ve got to teach yourself
Gotta reach deep inside of yourself
You are a star
Find your own power and you will go far
You are a star
Let your light shine and you will go far
You are a star
Up high in the sky,
you will go higher
and higher
and higher
Filled with the fire

Master Sleuth
Heh heh, this one's funny and cute - an expression of the hip-hopper optimistic chica in me... It's also an expression of my understanding of the power of lyrics to bring a new truth to the world. Very cute.
This is what I have to do
This is what I want to do
This is what I’ve got to do
This is where I’m goin’ to
Cuz I’m a master sleuth
I’ve got to tell the truth
Yeah I can see right through
This phony ballyhoo
It’s got to be me
And it’s got to be you
Together with love
We can see this thing through
Cuz we’re all master sleuths...
