Colors
of the Wind by Schwartz: This
song shows the importance of understanding the depths of nature.
You think I'm an ignorant
savage
And you've been so many places
I guess it must be so
But still I cannot see
If the savage one is me
How can there be so much that you don't know
You don't know
And you've been so many places
I guess it must be so
But still I cannot see
If the savage one is me
How can there be so much that you don't know
You don't know
You think you own whatever
land you land on
The Earth is just a dead thing you can claim
But I know every rock and tree and creature
Has a life, has a spirit, has a name
The Earth is just a dead thing you can claim
But I know every rock and tree and creature
Has a life, has a spirit, has a name
You think the only people
who are people
Are the people who look and think like you
But if you walk the footsteps of a stranger
You'll learn things you never knew, you never knew
Are the people who look and think like you
But if you walk the footsteps of a stranger
You'll learn things you never knew, you never knew
Have you ever heard the
wolf cry to the blue corn moon
Or asked the grinning bobcat why he grinned
Can you sing with all the voices of the mountains
Can you paint with all the colors of the wind
Can you paint with all the colors of the wind
Or asked the grinning bobcat why he grinned
Can you sing with all the voices of the mountains
Can you paint with all the colors of the wind
Can you paint with all the colors of the wind
Come run the hidden pine
trails of the forest
Come taste the sun sweet berries of the Earth
Come roll in all the riches all around you
And for once, never wonder what they're worth
Come taste the sun sweet berries of the Earth
Come roll in all the riches all around you
And for once, never wonder what they're worth
The rainstorm and the river
are my brothers
The heron and the otter are my friends
And we are all connected to each other
In a circle, in a hoop that never ends
The heron and the otter are my friends
And we are all connected to each other
In a circle, in a hoop that never ends
How high will the sycamore
grow
If you cut it down, then you'll never know
And you'll never hear the wolf cry to the blue corn moon
For whether we are white or copper skinned
We need to sing with all the voices of the mountains
We need to paint with all the colors of the wind
If you cut it down, then you'll never know
And you'll never hear the wolf cry to the blue corn moon
For whether we are white or copper skinned
We need to sing with all the voices of the mountains
We need to paint with all the colors of the wind
You can own the Earth and
still
All you'll own is Earth until
You can paint with all the colors of the wind
All you'll own is Earth until
You can paint with all the colors of the wind
I
Believe I Can Fly by R. Kelly: This song stresses the importance of being
free and believing you can do anything.
I used to think that I
could not go on
And life was nothing but an awful song
But now I know the meanin' of true love
I'm leanin' on the everlasting arms
If I can see it then I can do it
If I just believe it, there's nothing to it
I believe I can fly
I believe I can touch the sky
I think about it every night and day
Spread my wings and fly away
I believe I can soar
I see me running through that open door
I believe I can fly, I believe I can fly
I believe I can fly
See I was on the verge of breakin' down
Sometimes silence can seem so loud
There are miracles in life I must achieve
But first I know it starts inside of me oh
If I can see it then I can be it
If I just believe it, there's nothing to it
I believe I can fly
I believe I can touch the sky
I think about it every night and day
Spread my wings and fly away
And life was nothing but an awful song
But now I know the meanin' of true love
I'm leanin' on the everlasting arms
If I can see it then I can do it
If I just believe it, there's nothing to it
I believe I can fly
I believe I can touch the sky
I think about it every night and day
Spread my wings and fly away
I believe I can soar
I see me running through that open door
I believe I can fly, I believe I can fly
I believe I can fly
See I was on the verge of breakin' down
Sometimes silence can seem so loud
There are miracles in life I must achieve
But first I know it starts inside of me oh
If I can see it then I can be it
If I just believe it, there's nothing to it
I believe I can fly
I believe I can touch the sky
I think about it every night and day
Spread my wings and fly away

I believe I can soar
I see me runnin' through that open door
I believe I can fly, I believe I can fly
I believe I can fly
Hey 'cuz I believe in me
If I can see it then I can do it
If I just believe it, there's nothing to it
I believe I can fly
I believe I can touch the sky
I think about it every night and day
Spread my wings and fly away
I believe I can soar
I see me runnin' through that open door
I believe I can fly, I believe I can fly
I believe I can fly
Hey if I just spread my wings
I can fly
I can fly
I can fly, hey
If I just spread my wings
I can fly
Fly eye, eye
Simple
Things by Usher: This song reminds people to appreciate the
simple things in life and live a simplistic life.
Yeah
They say money can't buy you love
They say money can't buy you love
They never seem to listen
I'm all ears
They say money can't buy you love
They say money can't buy you love
They never seem to listen
I'm all ears
Just copped your girl a
brand new Rolex
But you can never find the time to spend at home
Thinkin' it's gon' keep her happy
When time is all she wanted all along
But you can never find the time to spend at home
Thinkin' it's gon' keep her happy
When time is all she wanted all along
It's the simple things in
life we forget
You hear her talkin' but don't hear what she said
Why do you make something so easy so complicated?
Searching for what's right in front of your face
But you can't see it
You hear her talkin' but don't hear what she said
Why do you make something so easy so complicated?
Searching for what's right in front of your face
But you can't see it
So you think that you know
what's important
Steady chasin' your fame and your fortune
But you don't know you're chasing a dime losin' a treasure
Those dollars don't make sense to me at all
Oh, it goes
Steady chasin' your fame and your fortune
But you don't know you're chasing a dime losin' a treasure
Those dollars don't make sense to me at all
Oh, it goes
Duh da duh da
You give her spending money
Duh da duh da
But all she wanna spend is time alone, tonight
Keep givin' her
The finer things but
You give her spending money
Duh da duh da
But all she wanna spend is time alone, tonight
Keep givin' her
The finer things but
But she don't really need
that
If you don't stop you're
You're gonna end up alone
The world without love
Why would you do it?
If you don't stop you're
You're gonna end up alone
The world without love
Why would you do it?
It's the simple things in
life we forget
You hear her talkin' but don't hear what she said
Why do you make something so easy so complicated?
Searching for what's right in front of your face
But you can't see it
You hear her talkin' but don't hear what she said
Why do you make something so easy so complicated?
Searching for what's right in front of your face
But you can't see it
It's the simple things in
life we forget
You hear her talkin' but don't hear what she said
Why do you make something so easy so complicated?
Searching for what's right in front of your face
But you can't see it
You hear her talkin' but don't hear what she said
Why do you make something so easy so complicated?
Searching for what's right in front of your face
But you can't see it
Stop tryin' ta buy her love
'Cuz you won't ever have enough
There's always someone with more than you
You need to pay her attention
Give her what she needs
'Cuz you won't ever have enough
There's always someone with more than you
You need to pay her attention
Give her what she needs

If that's your lady
You better hold on
And give her what she want
Before she move on
Man I tell you cars, clothes, and fancy things
[Doesn’t mean a thing] if you ain't kickin' it baby
You better hold on
And give her what she want
Before she move on
Man I tell you cars, clothes, and fancy things
[Doesn’t mean a thing] if you ain't kickin' it baby
It's the simple things in
life we forget
You hear her talkin' but don't hear what she said
Why do you make something so easy so complicated
Searching for whats right in front of your face
But you can't see it
You hear her talkin' but don't hear what she said
Why do you make something so easy so complicated
Searching for whats right in front of your face
But you can't see it
Get
Up, Stand Up by Bob Marley: This song talks about taking a stance and
not to be afraid to stand up for what you believe in.
Get up, stand up, stand up
for your rights
Get up, stand up, don't give up the fight
Get up, stand up, stand up for your rights
Get up, stand up, don't give up the fight
Get up, stand up, don't give up the fight
Get up, stand up, stand up for your rights
Get up, stand up, don't give up the fight
Preacher man, don't tell
me, Heaven is under the earth
I know you don't know, what life is really worth
It's not all that glitter's is gold, half the story has never been told
And now you see the light, you stand up for your right
I know you don't know, what life is really worth
It's not all that glitter's is gold, half the story has never been told
And now you see the light, you stand up for your right
Get up, stand up, stand up
for your rights
Get up, stand up, don't give up the fight
Get up, stand up, stand up for your rights
Get up, stand up, don't give up a fight
Get up, stand up, don't give up the fight
Get up, stand up, stand up for your rights
Get up, stand up, don't give up a fight
You see, most people think
great God will come from the sky
Take away everything and make everybody feel high
But if you know what life is worth, you would look for yours on earth
Now you see the light, stand up for your right
Take away everything and make everybody feel high
But if you know what life is worth, you would look for yours on earth
Now you see the light, stand up for your right
Get up, stand up, stand up
for your right
Get up, stand up, don't give up a fight
Get up, stand up, stand up for your right
Get up, stand up, don't give up a fight
Get up, stand up, don't give up a fight
Get up, stand up, stand up for your right
Get up, stand up, don't give up a fight
Sick and tired of a the
ism-skism game
Dyin' n' goin' to Heaven in a Jesus name, Lord
We know when we understand, Almighty God is a living man
Dyin' n' goin' to Heaven in a Jesus name, Lord
We know when we understand, Almighty God is a living man
You can fool some people
sometimes
But you can't fool all the people all the time
And now you see the light, stand up for your right
But you can't fool all the people all the time
And now you see the light, stand up for your right
Get up, stand up, stand up
for your right
Get up, stand up, don't give up the fight, no
Get up, stand up, stand up for your right
Get up, stand up, don't give up the fight

Don't give up the fight, don't give up the fight
Don't give up the fight, don't give up the fight
Don't give up the fight, don't give up the fight
Don't give up the fight, don't give up the fight
Don't give up the fight, don't give up the fight
Don't give up the fight, don't give up the fight
Don't give up the fight,
don't give up the fight
Don't give up the fight, don't give up a fight
I say now, don't give up the fight
Don't give up the fight, don't give up a fight
I say now, don't give up the fight
So we won't give up the
fight, so we won't give up the fight
So we won't give up the fight, so we won't give up the fight
So we won't give up the fight, so we won't give up the fight
So we won't give up the fight, so we won't give up the fight
I say now
So we won't give up the fight, so we won't give up the fight
So we won't give up the fight, so we won't give up the fight
So we won't give up the fight, so we won't give up the fight
I say now
So we won't give up the
fight, so we won't give up the fight
So we won't give up the fight, so we won't give up the fight
So we won't give up the fight, so we won't give up the fight
You see, most people think
great God will come from the sky
Take away everything, make everybody feel high
But if you know what life is worth, you would look for yours on earth
And now you see the light, stand up for your right
Take away everything, make everybody feel high
But if you know what life is worth, you would look for yours on earth
And now you see the light, stand up for your right
Stand up for your right,

Stand up for your right,
stand up for your right
Stand up for your right
Stand up for your right
