The president won't tell me
What to do
The media won't tell me
What to think
The party won't tell me
How to live my life
I am the citizen of the Earth
My home is where the real people are

The Sun is my father
The Earth is my mother
And I will repose upon her *****
In work we'll create a new land
In peace having buried the inevitable truths
The governments have been feeding us always
We who will never take the gun
They say you should ****
Your brothers and sisters with
We who respect the person
Whatever race or gender this person is
This is our mission in a temporarily
Messed-up world
To start living with understanding
And fill our minds with love

Timorous reason
Crippled mind
Always with me
Desire to fly

Away with parrots
Chanting hymns
Of far-away lands
We have lived in

Time is up now
Time for the next
Immaculate life
To be morally blessed

Since I saw you last
My world's been rolling up
With darkness

And only distant flirt of stars
Gives me the hope that some day
I'll see again you shining bright
Or at least catch the glimpse of eyes
That I dream of during the stormy night

The filth is coming out
Nobody cares who's wrong and right
When our enormous plane is crushing
Into someone else's sky

Wrapped in a gentle comfort towel
Imagined by the hidden shadows
Newly-born screaming in a tower
Soon they'll get pockets filled with papers

Akira
Show me the way
Through the walls
In my mind
And when you do please stay
Despite all odds
With all your might
Akira
Today is the beginning of tomorrow
Let the problem of one person
Be the the problem of everyone
When we see the light we'll follow
The Blue bird will fly away soon
And all of us into the hands of the Sun

When the new Sun rises
And hatred is failed away
When one person's life will stop
Be an object of the trade

When we dream together of
Cruelties as stamps of sorrow
Them our hands will push away
As blank shadows of tomorrow

When we see as if one eye
Guides our free and loving minds
In the land of waving flowers
Yellow sands and clear blue sky
