lyrics

There's smoke out on the highway, where devastation beats his drum
And all the *dark desires of madmen
Would skin my neck with a wicked thumb
Most days I find that it's relentless, this war we wage within our hearts
Are we fighting to have plenty, and leaving Love to beg and starve?
Now there's blood upon the water, where still and peace used to abide
Rivers are flowing with a poison, the will of God and man collide
There is a melody on my mouth, there is a song within my heart
My head is filled up with a music, the politics of faith and art
This song was written by a kind Bird, that every man has tried to tame
He is as gentle as a white dove, and he's as dangerous as a flame
He's calling out to every people, to every tribe, and kin, and tongue
To go the way of devastation, or to his wing's asylum
What will you do with this dilemma? Elusive Bird, and the way of man
Brother and sister come together, repent, relent, revive, be reborn, if you can.
*(Lyric by Bap Kennedy)

From deep in the heart of central Arkansas, Balla Dear muses in the medium of Southern Folk, Country Gospel, and Folk Ballad. The themes are evident; peace and solace amidst one's own undoing. Sacrificial love is by far the greatest gift among men. ... more
