[Silence]
[Instrumental Intro: funky psychedelic guitar, bouncing bass, handclaps, bright synth]
[Intro]
[Low Synth Drone, Spoken Vocal, Distant and Fragmented]
Beam me down
(Down, down, down)
“Is there any intelligent life…”
… around
(Can any be found…)
Spinnin’
(Round n’ round n’ round)
[Verse 1]
Wake up
(Shake up)
Get outta bed
(Get that beat inside your head)
Sunrise
(Open eyes)
Another day
(Another chance to find a way)
No matter where
(You came from)
No matter who
(You are)
We’re breathing
(Underneath the same star)
[Refrain]
Raisin’ the roof
(Raisin’ the vibe)
Proof!
(We’re one tribe)
The human race
(All in one place)
Raise love above
(Love, love, love)
[Verse 2]
Raise your hand
(If you understand)
Raise your voice
(We all have a choice)
Raise the roof
(Raise the floor)
Raise some hell
(Then raise some more)
Raise your spirits
(Raise your eyes)
Raise your hopes
(And realize)
We don’t have
(To tear apart)
To make room
(Inside the heart)
[Chorus]
Raise it up
(Up, up, up!)
Raise it high
(High, high, high!)
Raise a little
(Harmony)
Raise a little
(Humanity)
Raise the roof
(Raise the vibe)
Raise the proof
(We’re one tribe)
[Verse 3]
Some are rich
(Some are poor)
Some have plenty
(Some need more)
Some have power
(Some have none)
All our hours
(Under one sun)
[Refrain]
Raisin’ the roof
(Raisin’ the vibe)
Proof!
(We’re one tribe)
The human race
(All in one place)
Raise love above
(Love, love, love)
[Verse 4]
Raise compassion
(Raise it up)
Raise forgiveness
(Fill the cup)
Raise awareness
(Raise your sight)
Raise a candle
(Be the light)
Raise the question
(Raise the bar)
How much better
(Could we be “our”?)
Raise the future
(Raise today)
Raise each other
(On the way)
[Bridge]
The folklore
(of “us and them”)
Is no more
(I think… therefore I am!)
[Break]
Raisin’!
(Praisin’!)
Raise it up!
(Up!)
Raise love!
(Love!)
… above…
Give flight…
… to the white winged dove
The light of love
[Final Refrain]
Raisin’ the roof
(Raisin’ the vibe)
Proof!
(We’re one tribe)
The human race
(All in one place)
Raise love above
(Love, love, love)
Raisin’ the roof
(Raisin’ the vibe)
Higher!
(We’re still alive)
The human race
(All in one place)
Raise love above
(Love, love, love)
Raise love…
(Above!)
Love, love, love
[Instrumental Outro: funky guitar, handclaps, bass groove, crowd-style “one tribe!” chants fading out]
[Outro]
Can you see reality
(It’s coming into view)
A world moving rapidly
(What are we gonna do?)
Raise love…
(Above!)
Love, love, love
[Silence]
