Story Behind The Song
A piano dominant song with hints of classical and contemporary that provides a thoughtful backdrop for poignant lyrics about people in power. The edgy intro quickly resolves into a g-minor flurry. The bass takes on a cello quality and the quirky sounds of the Electronic Wind Instrument give it a fresh, current and relevant sound.

Lyrics
Senator
Here's your letter
Your honor
Here's your chair
Commissioner
Here's your seal
Doctor
Here's the deal
Give your power to a flower
Give your wealth to the street
Give your gift of conversation to the meek
And give your song
Emma, smoke your pipe
Diana, drive your spite
Ani, keep it real
Hillary, here's the deal
Give your power to a flower
Give your wealth to the street
Give your gift of conversation to the meek
And give your song
(gift of conversation, gift of conversation)
Senator
Don't be shy
Your honor
Hold it high
Commissioner
Keep it fair
Doctor
Proceed with care
And give your power to a flower
Give your wealth to the street
Give your gift of conversation to the meek
And give your song
And here it comes
And here it comes
Hear, Here
