Make It So (Parts 1 & 2)

from Where You Are Now (special edition) by ASCENDANT

/

lyrics

VERSE
We could be/ Prosperous/ I mean all of us
This world is rich and plentiful/ With anything we need
Sharing this/ Precious gift
Holding on to our true purpose/ Just spirits living free
But I know

CHORUS 1
You don't want a world like this
You don't want a world like this (repeat)
Cause if you did you'd make it so
Cause if you did you'd make it so (repeat)

VERSE
Imagine/ The mind of man/ Focused on
A helping hand
Compassionate and selfless/ A renewal of his will
Nurturing/ Life within
Concerned for all conditions/ Every dream fulfilled
But I know

CHORUS 1
You don't want a world like this
You don't want a world like this (repeat)
Cause if you did you'd make it so
Cause if you did you'd make it so (repeat)

SOLO

PART 2
It's so sad how/ We let another person
Use a concrete curb to lay their head
It makes me cry that/ Hunger and starvation
Pave our streets and tour the world each day

CHORUS 2
Cause they ain't got no money
Little pieces of paper
A man ain't got no value in this world
If they ain't got no money (repeat)

SOLO

CHORUS 2
Cause they ain't got no money
Little pieces of paper
A man ain't got no value in this world
If they ain't got no money (repeat)

VAMP
If you don't want a world like this
If you don't want a world like this... (repeat)

ASCENDANT Chicago, Illinois

Soulful Inspiring. Just a few words that people use to describe them & their artistry, and yet ASCENDANT is simply that, ascendant...rising above. ASCENDANT has been rising above their fears, their obstacles & creating meaningful, soul-filled music in an era when such artistic statements just aren't made but desperately needed. ASCENDANT rises... and asks us all to join them in flight ... more
