Digging deeper for a change that I could trust forever
And to get by I will try to fight and fuss more clever
See the window shield of my familiar temper shatter
Picking pieces up with bare hands made me that much badder

Common knowledge say a USA president can’t save you
Everywhere you turn a mental warden seeks to slave you
Ceilings crack for those who made the choice to join the party
Whole movement jacked, hell for ransom by the safe and sorry

I am one and I am four directions on this wheel of life (wheel of life)
It is wise to honor all of God’s children on this wheel we ride

Fighting causes to effects puts danger on your body
But what is danger in a battlefield with no equality
Ain't goin' sing strictly by love when it wanted freedom quietly
It's a reality I'm feeling here, so deep inside me

Why all the kneecap jelly?
Why they so afraid to tell me
When they could lead us further, why back up, the greed prevailing?

We're so much bigger than we think we are
But so retarded
The stress of being sold
And marriage going unhonored spawned it
Stack that bomb-being tax up
Human plagued with senseless flogging
I am a voice
Descended from the ones who lived throughout it

Don’t ever say I don’t have the right to stand and talk about it
The thuggish head's the one that's told me I'm to scream and shout it

The four directions are the soul and nature be about it
The mercy we all seek will come when our hearts have responded

I am one and I am four directions on this wheel of life (wheel of life)
It is wise to honor all of God’s children on this wheel we ride
