Story Behind the Song
This song took the shortest of any song I have ever done. With Alicia's voice on the hook, I knew I couldn't go wrong. It was inspired by an old, live Joan Baez CD; I found her take on the traditional song powerful, and applicable to today's world.
Lyrics
V1: My life, my joy, my liberty/My future hope, my progeny/So valuable, and cannot be/Eclipsed
by insecurity/So ‘stead of diggin’ a deeper hole/Transform my dreamz into a goal/And once you
get me off the ground/Ain’t no one gonna turn me round/Hook 1: Ain’t gonna let nobody turn me
around, turn me around, turn me around/Ain’t gonna let nobody turn me around/Keep on walkin’,
keep on talkin’, gonna build a brand new world/V2: I’m on a mission, it’s my fate/To try to
‘liminate the hate/So leaders don’t manipulate/Or use our ignorance as bait/Now I’m no peacenik
& I eat meat/But I don’t ‘ppreciate deceit/And once you get me out my seat/You know I’m
gonna bring the heat/Hook 2/Bridge: You’ve got a voice needs to be heard/Like Joan & Cat,
Stevie & Marvin/So do yo part & spread the word/It’s your own future you be carvin’/If you ain’t
angry somethin’s wrong/Our world and theirs is under attack/So gather yo rage & make it
strong/And can’t nobody hold you back/Hook 3/(Hooks based on the Joan Baez version of the
song)
