Rainbows  Rainbows  Rainbows  Rainbows  We’ll promise to begin  Keep going understand  When we are feeling low  Don’t know which way to go  Look for the moment  There will be hallelujah  Beneath the fear in me  All I need to send me over  All the way  All the way over I see the colors show  I know which way to go  Rainbows (We can, We gonna make this change  I can, I got a long way ahead of me) Rainbows  (We can we gonna do this finally  Why can’t we all) Rainbows (We can, We gonna make this change  I can, I got a long way ahead of me) Rainbows  (Gonna do this finally) Exorbitant light colors this rainbow Sith Like a box of fruit loops, what I wear on my wrist I feel an energy forming, coming out of the mist Was it divine revelation? Always know to exist It was LOVE, in capital letters, the devils fear it A lot of darkness in this life, so I follow the spirit ‘Cause it’s too much hate, like it’s thriving off a battery The hole that we digging ourselves resembles a cavity Mass killings with bad feelings and racist threats When asked why, the answer never seems to connect Bent halos placed over the head of these fake angels The ones that think they better than you, from all angles Only one god, one love, one truth All ya’ll non-believers scare me, all of ya’ll in cahoots We need to hug more, form one alliance to make it better Weather the storm and unite for what’s right, and stand together And it comes and it goes for ya  Not when it’s supposed to be  Letting it all air  Taking it all back  Aware of miracles  Unlike the cynical  We’re young and have to grow  Got nowhere else to go  Rainbows (We can, We gonna make this change  I can, I got a long way ahead of me) Rainbows  (We can we gonna do this finally  Why can’t we all) Rainbows (We can, We gonna make this change  I can, I got a long way ahead of me) Rainbows  (We can we gonna do this finally  Why can’t we all) (Long way long way long way)  Rainbows (We can, We gonna make this change  I can, I got a long way ahead of me) Rainbows  (We can we gonna do this finally  Why can’t we all)

Home 02:31
Already home, but I can’t see the door All the keys that I had, they don’t fit anymore Maybe I went the wrong way Down a winding road that ended in a hard place On my own Nobody knows, they don’t think anything Go through my phone, they won’t see what it says Maybe I went the wrong way Down a yellow road that ended with a heartache Of my own I won’t ever stop believing, believing Even if you got to leave Nobody’s home, but I can’t see the door All the keys that I had, they don’t fit anymore Maybe I went the wrong way Down a winding road that ended in a hard place On my own How can it be, how can it be Tell me how can it be, how can it be Tell me how can it be, how can it be Tell me how can it be, how can it be, tell me

Little fate, never stops Where you fall when you're going home You go, we go Pray with stones, break your bones Living life like we are alone But you are in line with the sun Little seed hidden in the mud There's no need to fit in You're different, you're cool Wait and see Radiant Child Radiant Child Look in my eyes Look in my eyes You'll find a world You'll find a world You'll find my heart Never apart Radiant Child You know that you're meant to glow Like the ocean at night with the moon in your eyes Radiant Child, you'll be free Oh yeah (The night, the night, the night) (The night, the night, the night) Radiant Child Radiant Child Look in my eyes Look in my eyes You'll find a world You'll find a world You'll find my heart Never apart Radiant Child

Yooo Yooo I’m going through it We’re going through it Oooh Oooh Try not to lose it We’re gonna do it, what you say? Hard to sleep, no one has enough Bang bang, tweet tweet, isn’t natural Pain and mercy going back and forth Up against the wall, insatiable Hard to say when we lost control Continue to seek the invisible Look at that, ahead Ahead, uh Yooo Yooo I’m going through it We’re going through it Oooh Oooh Try not to lose it We’re gonna do it, what you say? We can let it fall away (We can let it fall away) We can learn from our mistakes (We can learn from our mistakes) We can find another way (We can find another way) We can change the human race Oh it’s flowing over And I don’t believe it Oh we conceived it What an important moment A call to perceive with In this new reality Are you with me, ‘cause I want to know Yooo Yooo I’m going through it We’re going through it Oooh Oooh Try not to lose it We’re gonna do it, what you say? We can let it fall away (We can let it fall away) We can learn from our mistakes (We can learn from our mistakes) We can find another way (We can find another way) We can change the human race

Signs, signs, signs Signs, signs, signs, signs, signs Couple days since I really had to go No fugaze, I been out here on my own Talk to me when the world been feeling cold Them degrees must be ‘round 30 below Couple nights, I been singing in a row Pair of dice in my hand, I gotta roll Never leave when I’m out there on the road Watching me while I balance on the rope Act all wild, how you do that? Act all wild, how you do that? Act all wild, how you do that? Act all wild, how you do that? Act all wild, how you do that? Act all wild, how you do that? Act all wild, how you do that? Act all wild, how you do that? You fought the battle, that I can’t deny You dealt with struggles, that I can’t believe I dealt with pain up on the other side You came to show me it was made to leave I feel you even when I’m far away You show no mercy when you talk to me I see you every time I go to sleep You see right through me when you’re close to me Act all wild, how you do that? Act all wild, how you do that? Act all wild, how you do that? Act all wild, how you do that? Act all wild, how you do that? Act all wild, how you do that? Act all wild, how you do that? Act all wild, how you do that?

about

‘Rainbow Child’ celebrates and reconnects with our inner child. It explores all of the depths that we experience when we have changed, but reminds us to always embrace it all. The pain, beauty, fear and love. Acceptance of life in its totality brings true radiance inside and out.
