Al Harper - About Power Lyrics

Patch of palms rockin right along
And just beyond on the horizon
Powder moon won't light up yet
Not 'til the sun decides it's time for him to set
Purple sky, a lullaby
Won't someone put that kid to bed?

Oh, don't begin debasing your better self now
Don't hold me down, don't drown me out
If it's about power, I'm getting bigger by the hour

I've been all of them, I've been none
Content to rest my laurels on another's rising sun
You pull Impatiens from their legs
So you can watch them wither in a pretty vase

Oh, don't begin debasing your better self now
Don't hold me down, don't cut me out
If it's about power, I'm getting bigger by the hour
