about

Inspired by Rivera Sun's novel, The Dandelion Insurrection, Love and Revolution; and by Joanna Macy and Michael Meade in their awesome wisdom teachings about this mythological life and potential for humans to live deeply rooted in knowing that the world cannot end because it's always in the process of rebirthing itself. We don't know . . .

lyrics

Love and Revolution

What would you say
if you knew it all ended tomorrow?
We don’t know
How would you play
If you knew it all ended tomorrow
We don’t know
But we know this sweet world
Is not going to end
Because it’s always returning to beginning again
And tomorrow is one great mystery, my friend
So let it be good right now
Let it be good good and how
Let it be love right now
Let it be love love love love
Love and revolution
What if you knew that
Your actions determined the outcome
Of everything
How would you play
If your actions determined the outcome
Of everything
What if god stood before you
With her hands on her hips
And she said, “I’ll accept none
But loving words from your lips”
And she said, “Everything changes
With conviction like this,
I need you to be good right now
I need you to be good good and how
I need you to love right now
I need you to be love love love love
Love and revolution.”
