To live without tradition To live without religion But rather to have faith and hope ... for all Simply to be one and not divided Not to be seen as man or woman Neither black or white But as a person Is that really so much to ask Not to be a race or gender ... but a being Just a being of self No ugly ... no pretty ... no rich ... no poor ... no status Just a person ... an existing and living being Radiating Love towards all To know that the light needs the dark And the dark needs the light Both need to coexist No-one can perform a good deed if there's no evil to conquer The street sweeper won't have any work If there weren't people careless enough to pollute the environment And so also the ants carried your breadcrumbs away that you left on the kitchen counter last night But still it's good to dream To dream of a perfect existence Of a place where there is only Love and peace A utopia I believe does exist beyond what we know The perfect dream The authentic dream

The Authentic Dream
To live without tradition To live without religion But rather to have faith and hope ... for all Simply to be one and not divided Not to be seen as man or woman Neither black or white But as a person Is that really so much to ask Not to be a race or gender ... but a being Just a being of self No ugly ... no pretty ... no rich ... no poor ... no status Just a person ... an existing and living being Radiating Love towards all To know that the light needs the dark And the dark needs the light Both need to coexist No-one can perform a good deed if there's no evil to conquer The street sweeper won't have any work If there weren't people careless enough to pollute the environment And so also the ants carried your breadcrumbs away that you left on the kitchen counter last night But still it's good to dream To dream of a perfect existence Of a place where there is only Love and peace A utopia I believe does exist beyond what we know The perfect dream The authentic dream
