Lyrics:
You're the reason
Aliens would come down to earth
Outer space must look small
From inside your universe
We paint time
With the colors of our lives
With what we do to survive
If I were the branch
Of an old oak tree
I hope you'd be the one
On the swing tied to me
Your love is on a need to know basis
And I need to know right nowBen Harper - Slide Guitar, Vocals

Slavery
We need to talk about it
I say Black Lives Matter
'Cause history says we don't
You're either a Christian or a racist
You can't be bothSlavery
We need to talk about it
What does it say about America
What does it say about Africa
What does it say about all of usWhoever said time heals all wounds
Wasn't a slave I'm guessing
Hundreds of years
That's just too long of a lesson
What does it say about the buyer
What does it say about the seller
What does it say about all of usHow does a ghost forgive
How are we supposed to live
With 12 million taken
Not one single reparation
What does it say about forgiveness
What does it say about compassion
About justice
About fairness
About the law and the l and
About then
What does it say about nowWe Need To Talk About It
