I?m a bumblebee buzzing
In your backyard garden
With a two week lifetime to live
You ask is it worth it
Living just two weeks
When I?ve got so much to give

Well the flowers smell sweet
The sunlight?s soothing
I?ve got quite a ways to go
My family?s in the hive
Depending on me working
It?s the only life I know

Find compassion and love
Behind the anger and fear
Transform lives by seeing
The vision core
Of who and what we are

Find compassion and love
Behind the anger and fear
Transform lives by living
The vision core
Of who and what we are

*INSTRUMENTAL BRIDGE*

You live past eighty
Ruling the entire world
And you?re even flying in space
Yet in a generation
Your pollution and hatred
Can destroy the human race

In that dusty storehouse
Of decades lived life
Is gold of the wisdom to cope
Look past the danger
Imagined and real
And see realizable hope

Find compassion and love
Behind fear and anger
Transform lives by seeing
The vision core
Of who and what we are

Find compassion and love
Behind fear and anger
Transform lives by living
The vision core
Of who and what we are
