Aloha Ke Akua

Dbm 
Lend your ears, lend your hands, 
A 
Lend your movement, anything you can. 
Dbm 
Come to teach, come to be taught. 
A 
Come in the likeness in the image of God. 
                        E 
Cause, you can be like that. 
                                        Ab 
With all that humbleness, and all that respect. 

Dbm 
All of the power invested in me, 
A 
be it hard to love my enemies. 
                E                               Ab 
All of the black bags over the heads of the dead and dying. 

Dbm 
The more I understand about the human race, 
A 
the less I comprehend about our purpose and place 
                E 
and maybe if there was a clearer line 
Ab 
the curiosity would satisfy. 

Dbm 
Time based prophecies that kept me from living, 
A 
in the moment I am struggling 
                                E 
to trust the divinity of all the gods 
                                Ab 
and what the hell they have planned for us. 

Dbm 
I cry for the creatures who get left behind 
A 
but everything will change in a blink of an eye 
                E 
and if you wish to survive, 
                        Ab 
you will find the guide 


~ Dbm A E Ab ~ 

        Dbm 
I go back and forth every single day, 
A 
the clarity that comes to me in a choppy way, 
E 
as the feelings and the places 
and the seasons change, 
Ab 
the galaxies remain. 

Dbm 
Energy fields cone the body in space. 
A 
The angels that are coming from a spiritual waste. 
E 
The hate that gets me distant from my spiritual pace. 
Ab                                                      Dbm 
Ten fold the manna when the planets are in place, in polar alignment. 
A 
We're on assignment. 
E 
Bodies on consignment. 
 Ab 
Return them to the circus. 

Dbm 
And what is the purpose? 
A                       E 
What is the purpose and would you believe it? 
Ab 
Would you believe it 

        A               B 
if you knew what you were for 
                E       Ab 
and how you became so informed? 
           A                    B 
Bodies of info performing such miracles. 
        E                   Ab 
I am a miracle made up of particles 
                A 
and in this existence, 
                B 
I'll stay persistent, 
                E 
and I'll make a difference 
                Ab 
and I will have lived it.
