Lyrics
From the jaws of disillusionment, towards a better goal
Just leave it alone until you know
Will you build another bridge this evening?
Or view the world from within your own island destiny
Where you will own all that you see
Are you justified in causing your commotion?
Are you dignified in purging emotions?
Well, I see a better day coming soon,
I see a better way coming soon
Can you dig it mama?
Will you work on a new scheme this weekend?
Look your future in the eye and promise not to blink?
It’s not as easy as you may think
Are you justified in speaking truth to power?
Are you dignified in telling us what you see?
Well, I see a better day coming soon,
I see a better way coming soon
I see a better way, I see a better day,
Better days better ways, better days better ways, oh oh
Can you dig it mama?
