Embers of Ubuntu Lyrics by Kevin Paris

Mangos For Breakfast

2010

[Verse 1: Kevin Paris with Andrea Brubaker]
Lets take a stroll down this rhythm road
To escape these pains which have grown so old and cold
Well, take a seat beneath this melody tree
Escape to the sea, escape within the songs it sings
(Mmhmm, nah nah nah)
May we rewind to a kinder time
Where we appreciate the simple things we find
Indeed, let us dig up this rotten seed
Our individuality must not be consumed by greed
(No, no, I, and now let us)
Look upon what we've stumbled on
This here thing called love which has come and gone
And re-instill, it is our will
If we are to carry on, then, we must love
Yes, we must love
[Pre-Chorus: Kevin Paris with Andrea Brubaker]
Put those poisoned games aside
These sticks and stones, they have been tried
In this darkness we can no longer hide
[Chorus: Kevin Paris & Andrea Brubaker & both]
Awaken our minds and (awaken)
Compassionate souls (souls)
And let this sweet river flow
With all the love that it holds
Embracing the ways (the ways)
Their ways and our own, (our own)
On this earth we call home
We are one, we are whole, and so it goes
[Post-Chorus: both]
And so it goes
[Verse 2: Kevin Paris with Andrea Brubaker]
Have you kicked back with the passerby
Beneath the evening sky, where we realize, we analyze
Our actions, they are all intertwined, and
How humane really is humankind?
(Mmhmm, so, now, now)
We'll dip our toes where the water flows
To sustain our highs, and lift our lows
Our souls, must also be fed
But not by money or gold for which our love has been shed
(Nah, I see you)
Awake to meditate to the sunrise
Appreciate these skies, drawn up before our eyes
No longer shall we let them go, no
We must honor this sweet world beneath the moonlight and starlights glow
Yeah, honor this earth we know
[Pre-Chorus: Kevin Paris with Andrea Brubaker]
Put those poisoned games aside
These sticks and stones, they have been tried
In this darkness we can no longer hide
[Chorus: Kevin Paris & Andrea Brubaker & both]
Awaken our minds and (awaken)
Compassionate souls (souls)
And let this sweet river flow
With all the love that it holds
Embracing the ways (the ways)
Their ways and our own, (our own)
On this earth we call home
We are one, we are whole, and so it goes
[Post-Chorus: Kevin Paris & both]
And so it goes
Ah ha yeah
