Just throw away your material possessions
  And sing the praises of life
  This trip has taught me a valuable lesson
  The future brings clarity and vision
    It was independence day
  Ive seen the other side and I say
  Oh, Ive been insane
  And I will never be the same
    A mountain brings me space (?)
  The vine brings me time (?)
  Wind brings me change
  Unity with the ??
    It was independence day
  Ive seen the other side and I say
  Oh, Ive been insane
  And I wont never been same
    [Nick - spoken word]
  As the raw son sins in glamour
  And his greedy and violent rage
  Stimulate and torment assailants
  Peace is dead
  Uneasy moment as the first warrior stirs
  ?? denial ?? scheming to return
  The battle begins as the first victim
  Slowly, grudgingly
  Submits to the captivity of consciousness
  And I say
  It was independence day
