You Are A Part Of Me

You Are A Part Of Me

I heard a politician say that all the polls are lyin
Noones really poor if you have the luxury of modern
appliance
An empty fridge means that you can feed your kids with science
While the rich enrich our lives with more reliance
And while you say we need a way to become more self  sufficient
A living wage has been replaced with a different definition
You take away their benefits and give them ammunition
The NRA can teach the babes, it's cheaper than tuition

So let them keep the tax cuts and they can do the job creating
And they can funnel all that cash back into their new Mercedes
If we can't eat we'll be too weak for speech or commentating
And the pharmacies can breathe relief while we're asphyxiating
They act confused about the news that we're freezing in the cold
They're not so far removed to see the need they watch unfold
The dead can't vote, the weak can't march and easy to control
They take the rest and all that's left is in our heart and soul

When all you have are open hands with no power to intercede
When all you see is heresy and fallacy and greed
When all you see is poverty and indignity and need
When all the loss this world has wrought has brought you to your knees


STOP

breathe
breathe
breathe...

BREATHE
... Let your heart beat
Feel the ground beneath your feet
We're each adhesive missing pieces
But together we're complete
Haters speak of hate
Lovers speak of peace
When we love each other there is no other greater need
The molecules that you breathe out are now a part of me
And when i speak of love that breath has spread on lofty wings
To fill the lungs of everyone in need of comforting
When you're all alone and the world is breaking at the seams


Stop and breathe
And you'll feel me
Stop and breathe
