Not just my generation



I kept my eyes open and tried to see the point of what went on
In front of me
I kept what moved me, forgot about the rest
and took my young imagination
to the acid test

And it was easy then to say what love could do
It's so easy when your world is new

It's been so hard sometimes to find my way
I let my pleasure lead my little world astray
and if I'm truthful I'll say that I was blind to everything about this life
but what I had in mind

And it was so easy then to say where love could go
It's so easy when there's so much you don't know

About my imagination: it got me thru somehow
Without my imagination: I wouldn't be here now

And it was easy then when love was guaranteed
It's so easy when love is all you need

About my imagination I'm making this investigation into my imagination
According to my computations we're overdue for a transformation
Or is it my imagination?

I keep my eyes open and try to see this life in terms of possibility
With so much changing, and changing for the worse
You got to keep your head up, Baby
From the cradle to the hearse

And it was easy then to say where love could go
It's so easy when love is all you know

About my imagination: I'm getting ready for the celebration
I'm bringing my imagination: taking charge of my elevation
No fear, no trepidation: register my affirmation
No doubt, no hesitation: People get ready for the embarkation

About my imagination: calling out across the nation
It's time for some kind of re-dedication
Not talking 'bout just my generation
I'm sending out this invocation
I keep getting these excitations
More light: more love
More truth, and more innovation
