Times Like These

Times Like These

A Poem by Healing Star
"

Inspired by a song of same name by Xavier Rudd, there have never been Times Like These.

"
Times Like These,
Oh, times like These
Have there Ever Been
Times Like These
Times Like These

War Cries All Around
Is there a Place
That Still remains Quiet
Not out There, Not Out There
But I Believe, I Believe
There Still is Quiet, There Still is Still
Inside Each and Every One of Us

Times Like These,
Oh, times like These
Have there Ever Been
Times Like These
Times Like These

I Believe in Goin' to the River
And lettin' that River
Take the Pain with it's Flow
And Bein' in the Arms
Of My Mama, out in the Field
And Listening to my Friends
The Trees, I bend my Knees

Times Like These,
Oh, times like These
Have there Ever Been
Times Like These
Times Like These

Can we all Come Together
I wonder, Before it's to Late
Can we find a Way
To Really come Together
With our Peaceful Intentions
To Heal the World
Come On Boys, Come On Girls

Times Like These,
Oh, times like These
Have there Ever Been
Times Like These
Times Like These

You see I have this Dream
And I just can't let it Go
Deep Inside Me, there's this Dream
And My Heart wants Me, to Let it Show
I heard a Voice as the Year Began
We can bring our Dreams to Reality
I hear it Again, and Again

Times Like These,
Oh, times like These
Have there Ever Been
Times Like These
Times Like These

In Times Like These
Well, It's Times Like These
It's Times Like These
That we will Find our Peace Inside
And Through that Peace
We're gonna Bring it Alive
We're Gonna Heal This World
We're Gonna Heal This World
In Times, In Times Like these

Can we all Come Together
I wonder, Before it's to Late
Can we find a Way
To Really come Together
With our Peaceful Intentions
To Heal the World
Come On Boys, Come On Girls

I Said, it's Times like These
It's Times Like These
When we're All just barely Holdin' On
Can you Feel this Dream inside of Me
We can go On, We can Bring It On
With our Peaceful Intentions
To Heal the World
We can Heal this World
We can Heal Each Other
Come On Boys, Come On Girls
I Know we Can, Heal the World

Times Like These,
Oh, times like These
Have there Ever Been
Times Like These
Times Like These

You See it took Times Like These
To put this Dream inside of Me
Without Times Like These
My Dream could not have been Born
It took all this Heart Ache
It took us All bein' Torn
It took Times Like These
To Bring Our Hearts
Where they Needed to Be
And Believe it Or Not, I Still Believe
We can All Be Free, We can All Be Free

Times Like These,
Oh, times like These
Have there Ever Been
Times Like These
Times Like These

So come on Children
No time for Losin' Heart Now
We gotta at Least keep Tryin'
I know we can all make it Some How
Though it may look like our World's Dyin'
There is Still a Rainbow after all the Showers
If we can just Try to Live our Dream
We might just learn we still got our Powers

I Said, it's Times like These
It's Times Like These
There Ain't never been Times Like These
When we're All just barely Holdin' On
Can you Feel this Dream inside of Me
We can go On, We can Bring It On
With our Peaceful Intentions
To Heal the World
We can Heal this World
We can Heal Each Other
Come On Boys, Come On Girls
I Know we Can, Heal the World
