The Chariot - Cheek. lyrics

I found the answer open your hands
Found the answer open your hands
Open your hands open your hands
Open reach out, distance enough
Fair maiden in hand
All in all, we ain't but, we press on!

I'm sorry
But, I don't want to be an Emperor that's
Not my business I don't want to
Rule or conquer anyone i should like to help
Everyone if possible: Jew
Gentile, black man
White we all want to help one
Another human beings are like that

We want to live by each other's happiness
Not by each other's misery we don't want to
Hate and despise one another in this world
There’s room for everyone and the
Good earth is rich, we can provide


For everyone the way of life
Can be free and beautiful
But we have lost the way

Greed has poisoned men's souls has
Barricaded the world with hate
Has goose-stepped us into
Misery and bloodshed
We have developed speed
But we have shut ourselves in machinery that
Gives abundance has left us in want
Our knowledge has made us
Cynical our cleverness
Hard and unkind we think too much
And feel too little more than
Machinery, we need humanity
More than cleverness, we need kindness
And gentleness without these qualities
Life will be violent, and all will be lost

The aeroplane and the radio have
Brought us closer together
The very nature of these inventions cries
Out for the goodness in men, cries
Out for universal brotherhood for the unity
Of us all even now
My voice is reaching millions
Throughout the world: millions of
Despairing men, women
And little children victims of a system
That makes men torture and
Imprison innocent people
To those who can hear me
I say "Do not despair"

The misery that is now upon us
Is but the passing of greed
The bitterness of men who fear
The way of human progress
The hate of men will pass and dictators die
And the power they took from
The people will return to the people
And so long as men die
Liberty will never perish

Soldiers, don't give yourselves to brutes
Men who despise
You, enslave you, who regiment your lives
Tell you what
To do, what to think, or what to feel, who
Drill you, diet you, treat you like cattle
Use you as cannon fodder
Don't give yourselves to these
Unnatural men, machine men
With machine minds
And machine hearts you are not
Machines, you are not cattle, you are men!
You have the love of humanity in your
Hearts you don't hate only the
Unloved hate, the unloved and the unnatural
Soldiers, don't fight for slavery
Fight for liberty!

In the seventeenth chapter of
Saint Luke it is
Written "The kingdom of God is within
Man" Not one man, nor a group of
Men, but in all men in you
You the people have the power!
The power to create machines
The power to create happiness you
The people have the power
To make life free and beautiful
To make this life
A wonderful adventure then, in
The name of democracy, let us use that
Power let us all unite let us
Fight for a new world
A decent world that will give men
A chance to work that
Will give youth a future and
Old age a security

By the promise of these things brutes have
Risen to power, but they lie
They do not fulfill their promise
They never will dictators free
Themselves but they enslave the people
Now let us fight
To fulfill that promise let us fight to free
The world to do away with national barriers
To do away with greed
With hate and intolerance let
Us fight for a world of reason
A world where science and progress will
Lead to all men's happiness

Soldiers! In the name of democracy
Let us all unite!

Don't set the sun or let hearts grow dim
Return back to the hill that you left
With the city in your hands
And if nothing's left

The forest marches on forget not who you are
(Children of the sun)

My point is salt is on the ground
The cast are on their way
The audience is set
Now that we've painted faith
Shout, "Victory is yours!"
