Universal Mother |
Brothers, sisters, fathers, and sons, brothers, daughters |
The offspring sounds the chord of change |
Love and kindness to flow |
Compassion soothes all woes |
Universal Mother, let yourself go! |
The inside is not, the outside it too |
See yourself through |
Love and kindness soothes all woes |
Universal Mother, let yourself flow! |
I’d like to tell y’all a story about my grandmother |
She’s so sweet we call her «Na-Na» |
But her real name is Annie Shelati Marie-Toombs-Fulson-Evans-Green-Nash Nelson |
Now my mama’s nam is Daisy McGee |
Yeah, we come from th other side of the tracks, Watts |
But the sun shines in Watts, there’s smiles in Watts and there’s love in Watts |
And I think even now the Dahmer’s in Watts—the Dahmer’s everywhere |
What I’ve discovered from this university of life is karma |
Yeah, that’s actually it |
Trying to work out my karma, in a positive way |
But I’ve learned to accept that negative and tried to turn that into positive |
Trying to work out the karma |
