It's been a long hard struggle every day little sista'
It's been a long hard struggle every day
But the stage is being set here for the Holy Quickening
Where the truth will be revealed to you
Like smoke in the wind ...
Do you know who had to be the sacrifice, little brother?
Can you hear the ones who were the sacrifice?
The answer falls from your Indian eyes
Inside the tears of the Quickening
When your spirit comes back home to you
Like smoke in the wind ...
It's been a long hard struggle every day, little brother
It's been a long hard struggle every day
But your spirit is on fire with the message of the Quickening
And forgiveness is as sweet to you as smoke in the wind ...
Now let the work we do be from our hearts into people
Let the words we speak be words of love
'Cause the freedom that we feel is the treasure of the Quickening
Where the truth can come back home to you like smoke in the wind
It's a long hard struggle every day, so long
It's a long hard struggle every day
But the stage is being set here for some kinda' forgiveness
Where the truth can slip right into you
Like smoke in the wind ...
It's a long hard struggle every day, get to people
It's a long hard struggle every day
But the stage is being set here for the Holy Quickening
Where the truth will be revealed to you
Like smoke in the wind ...
It's been a long hard struggle every day
But the stage is being set here for the Holy Quickening
Where the truth will be revealed to you
Like smoke in the wind ...
Do you know who had to be the sacrifice, little brother?
Can you hear the ones who were the sacrifice?
The answer falls from your Indian eyes
Inside the tears of the Quickening
When your spirit comes back home to you
Like smoke in the wind ...
It's been a long hard struggle every day, little brother
It's been a long hard struggle every day
But your spirit is on fire with the message of the Quickening
And forgiveness is as sweet to you as smoke in the wind ...
Now let the work we do be from our hearts into people
Let the words we speak be words of love
'Cause the freedom that we feel is the treasure of the Quickening
Where the truth can come back home to you like smoke in the wind
It's a long hard struggle every day, so long
It's a long hard struggle every day
