Golden Child

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Hush now and sleep tonight, dry your eyes Summer rain will fall gently, gently in the moonlight The stars awake, I heard them say "It's safe now, so rest, oh pretty little golden child" (golden child, golden child, golden child, golden child) [Verse 2] I must have fallen deep in a dream I woke up in another world But I'm hoping it's real 'cause I'm loving just what I see Broken chains, no more pain Just love and soul, a new world for every little golden child [Bridge] The future will bring brighter days And the Earth will move at the sound of change [Verse 3] No more killing in the name of God Turning babies into firing squads No more blood flowing on the streets 'Cause the color of skin is all we see No more daddies trying to get away Leaving cribs without a loving sway We need a people who will reconcile And make a way for every little golden child [Verse 4] No more brothers turned against brothers Quick to forget they got the same mother And no more lovers turned to enemies Trading hope for hearts of broken dreams I need a world where we lay down our weapons Stop all the hating, it's time we learn our lesson And, in my dream we overcoming our trials And finding peace for every little golden child Oh, yeah [Verse 5] A future bringing brighter days Moving at the sound of change (ooh) It's time we overcome our trials And find peace, love and new world for every little golden child Oh baby, won't you dry your eyes 'Cause it's safe now, a new world for every little golden child
