This heart of mine This heart of mine This heart of mine I see this vision somewhere in my mind Humanity and struggles, we got all these hills to climb This isn't working, maybe this one will Let's just keep practicing, we've got some time to kill I see them pushing, when them should be pull I see them hungry when I know them belly full, and Just like concrete, so hard, and so cold We all gon' need a little shelter from the storm And on your road to Zion Stop for the broken and battered, they're trying To break the mold, no storybook told To inherit the fire, you've gotta get burned All that we've learned, in the places we go When the world is too heavy, and lost all control... Leave all the things that would keep us down It's all loving now Nothing but loving now in this heart of mine In this heart of mine Yo, you think your trouble's what's in front of your face You think the danger is what? Whatever gets in your way You think the future's just one of your simple plans And then one day you stop, and maybe think again We don't have details on God, we don't know why we are here But in the darkness sometimes is when it's all really clear When the night is long, the morning always comes With all this questioning, answer it with your love And on your road to Zion Stop for the broken and battered, they're trying To break the mold, no storybook told To inherit the fire, you've gotta get burned All that we've learned, in the places we go When the world is too heavy, and lost all control Leave all the things that would keep us down It's all loving now Nothing but loving now in this heart of mine In this heart of mine Don't hold back if there are things you wanna say Can't take for granted when tomorrow is today Should have done something when you had the chance to take Won't mean nothing when tomorrow's yesterday I hear the people, and they're speaking up The message is that we need more love Bring us together now, to make our children proud Getting through these times, proving that we can make it out And on your road to Zion Stop for the broken and battered, they're trying To break the mold, no storybook told To inherit the fire, you've gotta get burned All that we've learned, in the places we go When the world is too heavy, and lost all control Leave all the things that would keep us down It's all loving now Nothing but loving now in this heart of mine It's all loving now Nothing but loving now It's all loving now Nothing but loving now It's all loving now Nothing but loving now It's all loving now, nothing but loving now in this heart of mine
