BANG A DRUM

​

Childhood to childhood life is a circle

and in that circle, bangs a drum

It carries the power, it carries the wisdom

Oh, it carries on and on

​

Live in one world, travel to another

on wings of a sister, tail of a brother

fly into the sky on smoke

Everyone listened when the wise man spoke

​

Bang a drum, sing a song

Hand it down to the next generation

Sing of love, sing of glory

Bang that drum, tell me a story

​

Bad dreams slip down through a hole

while you sleep to save your soul

Blind man has a new way to see

Every hand can plant a seed

Does not matter how slow you go

as long as you continue to grow ... grow

​

Bang a drum, sing a song

Hand it down to the next generation

Sing of love, sing of glory

Bang that drum, tell me a story

​

Teaching with compassion

through your history

Finding your compassion

so we don't repeat history

​

Bang a drum, sing a song

Hand it down to the next generation

Sing of love, sing of glory

Bang that drum, tell me a story

STRONGER THAN STONE

One day I broke down cryin' filled with sorrow and regret

My father held me in his arms and this is what he said

Be strong in love, be strong in life, stronger than stone

stronger than stone, stronger than stone

 

When life tries to strike, strike you down to the bone

A diamond does not hide it's shine even covered up in coal

Be strong in love, be strong in life, stronger than stone

stronger than stone, stronger than stone

 

A promise made's a promise kept, a sacred word, solemn oath

Don't be afraid to stand up child, you'll never be alone

Be strong in love, be strong in life, stronger than stone

stronger than stone, stronger than stone

 

You've got to be strong (strong)

You've got to be stronger (got to be stronger)

Stronger than stone, stronger than stone

You've got to be strong (strong)

You've got to be strong (got to be stronger)

Stronger than stone, stronger than stone

 

Be strong in love, be strong in life, stronger than stone

stronger than stone, stronger than stone

Be strong in love, be strong in life, stronger than stone

stronger than stone, stronger than stone

stronger than stone, stronger than stone, stronger than stone
