Morning Turns To NightWritten by: Lenny KravitzLittle girl with heroin so blueYou’ve got to find the future in youYour scepters and needles will put you awayForever and a dayYour future will haunt you before you get thereImagine the planet with no airAll mute no light no sun only lightAs far away as neverlandAs the sky comes tumbling down to the headAnd the valleys are all filed up with dirtAs many people as there are sands in the seaWill die the morning afterSo little girl with your heroin so blueI guess our future is all up to youThrough the battle sequence you must fight’Til the morning turns to nightSo imagine our world with no airJust follow the son, he’ll take you whereThe night and the seas are all full of light’Til the morning turns to night’Til the morning turns to nightWhat The Fuck Are We SayingWritten by: Lenny KravitzWill we ever understand?Or is the fate of man at hand?Will we live or shall we die?How will we ever know if we never try?The government’s the devil’s handsIt’s a lie and it’s a scamThey wind us up, put us down, and watch us goAnd if you close your eyesThere’s a big surpriseWhat the fuck are we saying?Do we feel what we dream about?We’ve got to keep on prayingAnd one day we’ll see the lightI’ve been lost in the name of loveAnd we kill our brothers daily in the name of godWe’d better chill before we take on some tribulationAnd if we realizedThen we’d make a little love now singWhat the fuck are we saying?Do we believe what we read about?We’ve got to keep on prayingAnd one day we’ll see the lightWhat the fuck are we saying?Do we feel what we dream about?We’ve got to keep on prayingAnd one day we’ll see the lightButterflyWritten by: Lenny KravitzYou are the most beautiful thingI’ve ever seenYou shine just like sunlight raysOn a winter snowI just had to tell you soYour eyes sparkle as the starsLike the moon they glowYour smile could light the world on fireOr did you know?Your mind’s full of everything thatI want to knowI just had to let you knowI just had to tell you soYou’re my butterflyFly highFly fly fly
