WISDOM CRIES ALOUD IN THE STREETS SHE UTTERS HER VOICE IN THE PUBLIC SQUARES AT THE HEAD OF EVERY NOISY STREET SHE MAKES HER SPEECH... SHE CRIES: “HOW LONG , HOW LONG, HOW LONG WILL YOU SIMPLE ONES HOLD ON, HOLD ON, HOLD ON TO YOUR SIMPLE WAYS? HOW LONG, HOW LONG, HOW LONG WILL YOU FOOLISH ONES HOLD ON, HOLD ON, HOLD ON TO YOUR FOOLISH WAYS HOW LONG, HOW LONG, HOW LONG WILL THE FOOL HATE KNOWLEDGE?” ©1994, 2015 GEORGE HILLMAN / UNIQUITOUS MUSIC BMI
2.	Every Drop Of Blood 03:40	lyrics
WITH EVERY DROP OF BLOOD THAT FELL THAT DAY A BILLION TEARS OF PAIN WERE WASHED AWAY TEN THOUSAND TIMES TEN THOUSAND WARS WERE WON 'TIL THERE WAS NOTHING LEFT TO PAY AND LIKE THE RAIN THAT WASHES EARTH AND AIR LIKE A FOUNTAIN FLOWING PURE AND CLEAR CLEANSING HEARTS AND SOULS AND MINDS OF MEN TEARING DOWN THE WALLS OF FEAR ONE MAN HUNG SUSPENDED IN THE SPACE WHERE POWERS STRUGGLED FOR THE HUMAN RACE BRIDGING THE GAP BETWEEN MANKIND AND GOD BY DYING WITH AMAZING GRACE (HOW SWEET THE SOUND!)
