Mother Earth 04:19
Voices calling, oh please save me the trees are falling, I cannot breath save the dolphins, save the whales save them all for me now save your own soul I know this is what will be mother earth See all the actions that you do to scar my face you kill the trees, you spread disease, I bath in toxic waste oh but there's still beauty see the birds in the sky soaring, soaring so high needless to say I cannot save myself it's now in your hands, I need your help day by day we draw closer a dreadful end this is real, wake up, we must defend And my creature die in pain destroyed by those in vain, dying, dying the land, the trees, the air, and the water we cannot destroy so the issues get hotter the greenhouse effect is bound to destroy me take action now, no time to be hasty I am the earth begging you to save me I am the earth begging you to stop save the dolphins, save the whales save them all for me now save your own soul I know this is what will be the land, the trees, the air, and the water we cannot destroy so the issues get hotter the greenhouse effect is bound to destroy me take action now, no time to be hasty I am the earth begging you to save me I am the earth begging you to stop killing me Wesley Davis (1991)

The dawn arises, beseech the warmth of day there's no disguises, glory on its way deep within the feelings is hope before me, cries of laughter feel so happy, ever after behind the garden grows a tree twisted limbs of old fallen leaves of yesterday echo stories told truth of the beauty the world is to share seal this thought I seem to be aware of hope before me, cries of laughter feel so happy, ever after behold the birds that soar above the sea as children watch and play in harmony the sky is gold, the glory glows forever forever glory glows to hold a picture, every detail know the lights and shadows they seem to stand alone deep within the feelings the fear you've held inside so long hold and now it's gone there is another day to see darkness grows so near in the bright serenity songs are heard so clear truth of the beauty the world is to share seal this thought I seem to be aware of hope before me, cries of laughter feel so happy ever after

I'm running down the hallways the long hallways of life running down the hallways hallways of life, hallways of life doors are all around me decisions that surround me thinking about it over and over and over and over Running down the hallway can't see where I've been only the direction of the final end but do I turn to the right or do I fly with the wind awe under the mighty earth and sky never look back for I don't have the time I know where to run too, I know where to run too don't you know the reasons for each of our finds? it's put there to show us, to show us the way as we run down the hallways and open the door can't seem to find what I'm lookin for I'm running down the hallways of my life running, running down the hallways of my life doors are all around me decisions that surround me thinking about it over and over and over and over don't you open the door to hatred, mankind has enough of that we need to find the unknown path to the hallway of love Fall down, don't fall down, don't fall Fall down, no no no no no no no doors are all around me decisions that surround me thinking about it over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over again sshhhh, sshhhh See the light upon the water shimmering beneath the dark and crisp moon sky another night so capturing even when wind blows, cries of an empty heart cries of a moment lost, lost in an eternity but I know where you can be and I know where we once walked together and every time I look for your face I know that we should be together, again be together, long lost friend and you know I love you as the lord loves his son until this day Now it's winter time the cold air on my face the lifeless trees and the grass covered with a bleached white tapestry no flowers, no life at all under the blackened sky before the dawn breaks though and the darkness burn away and it glows, this heart I find trapped under an ice of anger moonlight shines reflects the water I'm the water and I cry for a long time oh cry yes I do I cry for a long long time hoping we could be together again be together, long friend you know I miss you with my pain Oh yes I'm looking for you, looking for you I search through all these people people staring, they're looking at me I can fly and I sing but I still can't do everything cause I cannot find, I cannot find you all I really want to do is to find you just to see you again, I cannot find you goodbye, goodbye, goodbye goodbye my long lost friend wesley davis, 1989

The Traveler 07:35
we never notice when you come and go tell me if you are here, show me how to heal the traveler is here he says with love, "do you want a new world? then let the light erase the fall" and every time you're near the city sounds harder than thunder it's hard to escape from behind a wall he look a life and he sees far beyond the eyes of common man a piece of one exists in all he has the power to share I ask, he gently gives this reply "then let the light erase the fall' over water, float through the air find son or daughter, show how to heal hail life and shine that light on hail life and shine that on me shine the light, shine the on for me hail life and shine that light on hail life and shine that on me shine the light, shine the light shine the light on for me, oh the light on for me and you know where you want to run to now you know where you want to run where you want to run too, you've never been before never been before Wesley Davis (1991)

Images 04:12
Time like the mysteries of the world we have no key time is a vision we can't see, we can't see Is all that exists only today or can we stay longer to play? nothing said ever finds what is to be done the evil lies go on and on and on and on and on Time like the mysteries of the world we have no key time is a vision we can't see, we can't see, oh no Does freedom ever exist? only for the soul find temptation only to resist, it started long ago No, don't look for the goodness where their hearts are now and no we cannot change from darkness glow not now bye, bye innocence long before the little boy tunneled though the open field, skeleton trees a whisper so endless, tones from another land a whisper so endless, a violent breeze No, I don't like the negative feelings in the air no, we cannot change from dark and cold despair cold is soil, bury the images you have seen long, long is the pathway, follow forever a lost dream No, it's not over, together to conquer the mightiest forces to send them away on run away horses to free all the spirits and spread equality Wesley Davis (1989)

In a moment of eternity with you my friend In a moment of eternity Great times we had until a second lost one lost thought as we traveled at high speed I hear voice and sign of terror as perfection fell under a deep black spell it must be a dream or nightmare come true no time to think of what I should do a desperate grasp for life and a change in course a prayer, a wish, and a dream In a moment of eternity, three live fell in one hand you know that I love you, you know that it's true feel in your heart, even when we're apart Gasping, rolling, screaming in vain I look at the sky and Earth and the dirt as we roll along the freeway, oh let it stop I pray to see one last day we stop I jump out looking pale and scared "where's Kevin?" still echoes in my ears and I look to see him lying on the road lifeless on the ground In a moment of eternity three live fell in one hand you know that I love you, you know that it's true feel in your heart, even when we're apart And we see you walking towards the lighted door and we scream for you to stay, we need you more you know that I love you, you know that it's true feel in your heart, even when we're apart In a moment of eternity with you my friend In a moment of eternity Wesley Davis (1988)
