If You Raise Your Head
If you raise your head, take a look around you
If you raise your head, you don’t bend the knee
If you raise your head, you’re not afraid to see
If you’re feeling sad, take a look around you
If you’re feeling sad, better turn off your TV
If you’re feeling sad, don’t get mad at me
You say you didn’t see that coming
You say that you don’t understand
You wonder why
You couldn’t see
With your head in the sand
If you raise your head, you can see the future
If you raise your head, you can see the past
If you raise your head, you’re not afraid at last
You say you didn’t see that coming
You say that you don’t understand
You wonder why
You couldn’t see
With your head in the sand
If you raise your head, take a look around you
If you raise your head, tell me what you see
If you raise your head, you’re not afraid
If you raise your head, you sure ain’t dead
If you dare to raise your head
Tell me what you see …

The words to this superb song are so relevant to the present day. Please read these words, they are speaking to all of us. Take our heads out of the sand before it’s too late. If John L was still with us, this is what he would be saying. Superb meaningful work MLT’s
You have so much fun making music together! (I miss that, having moved away from where the last band I was in played) and these lyrics are great! Thank you!
