Take a Load Off Annie

Take A Load Off Annie We each form our little circles to gather around our little cliques Loose lips sinks ships take some time to move those hips As a student of the arts let us help one another to embark A stone pavement if you look closer looks marble in texture With a fever pitch noise we can each respect the texture Out of sadness there lies mere madness Take a load off Annie take a load for free A song in our heat should light the spark of what it is were waiting for There is a line being drawn in the sand you understand Shelter lies dormant amidst it's beckoning plow We shower the heads of people still it's gravitational pull brings some down We hire personal lawyers to feed our greedy hearts & lives Nature is battered with the earth crust swell It's in God's hand that we may dwell As in some caged fury through silence & pride Just thank the good Lord above that I'm still alive A promise that was made in the dark has now come to it's fullest light Through blackened shadows of sullen mast We should all just leave politics alone Shattered by the mere silence as far as you may roam.
