Write My Name in Gold
Over all the hills I can hear it.
I venture to the bottom of the ocean.
Looks we're gone, far into the unknown.
So write my name in gold.
Write my name in gold.
Show me what it looks like after it.
Tell me of a way to get over it.
Looks we're gone, far into the unknown.
So write my name in gold.
Write my name in gold.
Dirt and the dust, I buried my blood.
To the one who came to conquer.
To the one who crushed our state but not our will.
Did you think we wouldn't fight back?
Did you think we wouldn't fight back?
I can hear you justify your beliefs in war you call it love.
I know God above us sees me
and I know that he hasn't forgotten
my pain,
my people,
my struggle,
my cries.
Coming from the mouths of the smallest ones
to fortify the bones of the weaker ones.
(Weaker ones)
Looks we're gone, far into the unknown.
So write my name in gold.
Write my name in gold.
This is what it looks like after it.
This is all we needed to get over it. (Over it)
Looks we're gone, far into the unknown.
So write my name in gold.
Write my name in gold.
I dream of a day when my people are one,
all under the sun.
Where the wealth of some becomes the wealth of all.
Where the sick and hungry are the fed and clothed.
We speak into your mind.
We speak into the future.
We have everything we need.
There is no scarcity.
Yeah our next step in evolution is to live in peace.
There is no other alternative,
there is no other way.
So you can go.
I'll never say goodbye.
I couldn't save your life.
I couldn't save it if I tried.
This is what it looks like after it.
This is all we needed to get over it. (Over it)
Looks we're gone, far into the unknown.
So write my name in gold.
Write my name in gold.
This is what it looks like after it.
This is all we needed to get over it. (Over it)
Looks we're gone, far into the unknown.
So write my name in gold.
Write my name in gold.
I venture to the bottom of the ocean.
Looks we're gone, far into the unknown.
So write my name in gold.
Write my name in gold.
Show me what it looks like after it.
Tell me of a way to get over it.
Looks we're gone, far into the unknown.
So write my name in gold.
Write my name in gold.
Dirt and the dust, I buried my blood.
To the one who came to conquer.
To the one who crushed our state but not our will.
Did you think we wouldn't fight back?
Did you think we wouldn't fight back?

Write my name in gold.
This is what it looks like after it.

Looks we're gone, far into the unknown.
So write my name in gold.
Write my name in gold.
