      I sit myself high upon a mountain top an d I look far, far across the hills
      I'm so loaded, man, so deep and full, with all the love and all that is real
      We gotta cry out and reach out and turn our twisted minds
      And feel the connection that is between you and all that is alive

      To be with the smallest and biggest without fear and without pride
      I went through the chapel of dangers a few hundred times
      And I had to work so hard to keep my love and intuition
      And not to loose my guts and not to loose my mind
      I reach out, a step forward, I stumble and I fall
      All my greed and longing wasn't for the real at all

      So reach out, reach out, get a hand brothers and sisters
      Grow on your kindness, love harmony and peace
      Empty yourselves of everything, gain in loosing, thriving your freedom
      I tried, but I'm sure you will
