I’ve always been somewhat of a determined dreamer
…Naively positive, an idealistic leaner
I see a way that things could be; a different schema
I lay it all out on the line, a future, cleaner
With greater awareness, where people care less
About material gain…they’d rather fairness
Amongst all beings under this sky so blue
We co-create a new world, this time we follow through
To make a lasting change, cos more & more awake
Yes day by day awareness grows in seeing whats at stake
Identifying imbalances, causing all the problems
Correcting and challenging the status quo’s wrongness
See once many years ago I felt all alone
But now see tipping points galore that threaten the throne
Because there’s only so much crap that people swallow
Before they see the promises as lies that ring hollow

Determined dreamer, determined dreamer
I know you’ve got it in your head the grass is greener
Determined dreamer, determined dreamer
You live in all of us and in your heart you’re eager

So where to from here now that a spade’s a spade
And we all see there’s important choices to be made
Consult a moral compass and accept no less
Than freedom for all and redefining of progress
Cos one human being doesn’t have the answers
That blind following has rendered us as cancers
Malleable, deprived and with lowered standards
It’s crazy when existence aint the way we planned it
So what we do now is of great importance…
The path is long and there's no hope for shortness…
The answers are here, but old ways hold them back
But I’m quite aware that we can right the wrong track
What do we want…no more bullshit confusing me!
What do we need…no criminal acts with impunity!
What do we want…bodies boosted with immunity!
What do we need…a local living community!

Determined dreamer, determined dreamer
I know you’ve got it in your head the grass is greener
Determined dreamer, determined dreamer
You live inside us all and in your heart you’re eager

So let’s imagine a place where we’re all connected
No locks on doors, no need to feel protected
A place where we share with each and all
Where, yes, you may stumble…but never fall!
No place for competition with another
But of co-operation with each other
Where Community's a spirit, not an empty word
And your outcome is mirrored with the rest of the herd
We’re pieces to a puzzle of immeasurable worth
As puzzle pieces we're connected to the earth
And there's no place for irresponsible power
And we’re no longer enslaved to the final hour
We understand our place in this great cosmos
Consciousness feeds spirit instead of what was
No more faith in blind dogmas and such
And no hidden hand to ensure us in its clutch

Determined dreamer, determined dreamer
I know you’ve got it in your head the grass is greener
Determined dreamer, determined dreamer
You live inside us all and in your heart you’re eager
