Victory Dance

Should I close my eyes and prophesize

Hoping maybe someday come?

Should I wet the ground with my old tears

Crying over what's been done?

Should I lift the dirt and plant the seed

Even though I've never grown?

Should I wet the ground with the sweat from my brow

And believe in my good work?

My good work, my good work, my good work

Hey there, I'm flying up above

Looking down, on the tired earth

But I can see

I can see potential

Speaking through you

Speaking to you

From all of heavens possibility

Power, hey do you know how it work?

Hey do you know that the meek

They shall inherit the earth

But you should work

You should work

Yeah for yourself and the family

Should I hit the water or stay on dry land

Even though I never swam?

Take machete into the brush

Though at first there is no plan

Taste the warpaint on my tongue

As it's dripping with my sweat

Place my gaze in the futures path

Seeing things that ain't come yet

Hope to watch the victory dance

After the days work is done

Hope to watch the victory dance

In the evening's setting sun

Hope to watch the victory dance

Over many lives to come

Hope to watch the victory dance

In the evening's setting sun

Setting sun, setting sun, setting sun!

Hope to dance the victory dance

After the days work is done

Hope to dance the victory dance

In the evenings setting sun

Hope to dance the victory dance

Over many lives to come

Hope to dance the victory dance

In the evenings setting sun

Setting sun!
