Lyrics:

All around we see
Hardships greater than our own
If we stop to think
Half the world is on its own

Sand between the land
See the earth crashing down

Stop making these man-made prisons
Stop poisoning the air we breathe

I don't know
Of all the stupid notions
I don't know
what it is
what it is

I realize this beginning
The first of whom will see they're winning
It's so true
So true
It's so true
So true

Vultures in the city
Songbirds fading fast
The buzzard's empty desert
Will it ever last

Vultures in the city
Wars are never won
Minds that were ashamed
Friends lost in the sun

Vultures in the city
Acid in the pipes
It's never really over
It's never really right

Vultures in the city
Acid in the pipes
It's never really over
It's never really right

Enchantment is the power of learning
This life school we are turning
To a distant sky, to a distant song
To a distant star, to a distant drum

As all of the world is living
I realize this is beginning
It's so true
It's so true
It's so true
It's so true

So as we see the reasons unfold
I count them all for nothing
Open my eyes
I'm alive again
Unchained

So caring is the path we walk
Everyone receiveth the soul
With the eye of distance

Look again
Look again outside the prison bars
Be alive in the work and of the dream of love

Break the chains off everyone
Break the chains off everyone

Look again how the Vultures changed to birds of glory (the prayers of glory) ?
As the one, you believe inside releasing all the pain
Look again
As the sound of love
It circles and surrounds you daily
Trust is such a sacred word to me
