Universal Love
Rediscovering Unity: Chris Harper's Anthem of Universal Love
Lyrics
Can we talk about it
Expressing a desire to discuss a topic.
It's hard to explain what I feel like
Difficulty in articulating emotions or thoughts.
No words can describe this
Emphasizing the ineffable nature of the feelings.
I'm breathing in breathing out,
Engaging in the basic act of breathing.
Breath getting deeper now
Breathing becoming more profound.
Lost in conversation
Feeling lost or absorbed in a conversation.
It's easy to write word to paper
Highlighting the ease of expressing thoughts in writing.
Social isolation
Experiencing a sense of social isolation.
I can't say what I wanna say
Inability to express desired thoughts.
I'm speaking without a trace
Speaking without leaving a noticeable impact.
This drains the life out of me
Feeling emotionally drained.
I'm so tired of pretending
Frustration with pretending or putting on a facade.
That this all comes so naturally
Expressing a desire for authenticity.
Yet nobody's listening
Perception of not being heard or understood.
When did we lose time for each other
Reflecting on the loss of time for interpersonal connection.
Too obsessed to drown one another
Describing an unhealthy obsession with conflicts.
Life's too short so lets rediscover
Advocating for rediscovering the value of life.
Universal love
Advocating for a love that transcends boundaries.
Why don't we make time for each other
Questioning the lack of time dedicated to others.
Distant strangers but long lost brothers
Identifying distant connections as lost familial bonds.
Who decided to judge by colour
Criticizing judgments based on skin color.
Universal love
Reiterating the call for universal love.
Focus on acceptance
Promoting acceptance of diverse perspectives.
Embrace all the aspects of difference
Encouraging embracing differences.
We're all imperfections
Acknowledging imperfections in all individuals.
Cause no two people are the same
Recognizing the uniqueness of each person.
We're all insecure in ways
Highlighting shared insecurities among people.
This drains the life out of me
Repeating emotional exhaustion.
I'm so tired of pretending
Expressing fatigue from maintaining a facade.
That this all comes so naturally
Reiterating the desire for genuine interactions.
Yet nobody's listening
Emphasizing the lack of attentive listeners.
When did we lose time for each other
Reflecting on the erosion of time spent with others.
Too obsessed to drown one another
Describing an unhealthy preoccupation with conflicts.
Life's too short so lets rediscover
Advocating for rediscovering the value of life.
Universal love
Repeating the call for universal love.
Why don't we make time for each other
Questioning the lack of time dedicated to others.
Distant strangers but long lost brothers
Identifying distant connections as lost familial bonds.
Who decided to judge by colour
Criticizing judgments based on skin color.
Universal love
Reiterating the call for universal love.
