Victory Dance Lyrics
Should I close my eyes and prophesize
Hoping maybe someday come
Should I wet the ground with my own tears
Crying over whats been done
Should I lift the dirt and plant the seed
If I knew I'll never grow
Should I wet the ground with the sweat from my brow
And believe in my good work
My good work
My good work
My good work
Hey there, I'm flying up above
Looking down on the tired earth
And I can see, I can see potential
Speaking through you, speaking to you
From all of heaven's possibilities
Power, hey do know how it works
Hey do you know that the meek, they shall inherit the earth
You should work, you should work
leaving with something of ?
Should I hit the water or stay on dry land
Even though I've never swam
Take machete into the brush
Though at first there is no (man?)
Taste the war paint on my tongue
As it's dripping with my sweat
Place my gaze in the futures path
Seeing things that ain't come yet
Hope to watch the victory dance
After whole day's work is done
Hope to watch the victory dance
In the evening's setting sun
Hope to watch the victory dance
over many lives to come
Hope to watch the victory dance
In the evening's setting sun
Setting sun
setting sun
setting sun
Hope to dance the victory dance
After whole day's work is done
Hope to dance the victory dance
In the evening's setting sun
Hope to dance the victory dance
Over many lives to come
Hope to dance the victory dance
In the evening's setting sun
Hoping maybe someday come
Should I wet the ground with my own tears
Crying over whats been done
If I knew I'll never grow
Should I wet the ground with the sweat from my brow
And believe in my good work
My good work
My good work
My good work
Looking down on the tired earth
And I can see, I can see potential
Speaking through you, speaking to you
From all of heaven's possibilities
Hey do you know that the meek, they shall inherit the earth
You should work, you should work
leaving with something of ?
Even though I've never swam
Take machete into the brush
Though at first there is no (man?)
As it's dripping with my sweat
Place my gaze in the futures path
Seeing things that ain't come yet
After whole day's work is done
Hope to watch the victory dance
In the evening's setting sun
over many lives to come
Hope to watch the victory dance
In the evening's setting sun
setting sun
setting sun
After whole day's work is done
Hope to dance the victory dance
In the evening's setting sun
Over many lives to come
Hope to dance the victory dance
In the evening's setting sun

"Though at first there is no (man?)" I think it is path.
Great, great album, to those who want to grow up, no matter what's their age!!!
The world is claiming you !!!!
"Place my gaze in the futures path/Seeing things that ain't come yet" In every example there is a hope not quite understandable. "the taste the war paint on my tongue...its dripping with my sweat", to me would be poison excreting out mixing in with "my own sweat". He is dying of lies.

It's definitely not Golden, the band's best.
I love this song. Agree that "Golden" is their best, but this is such an awesome song about taking responsibility in your life and taking a leap, even in uncertain times. I like that they lead with the alternative: sitting around and blaming your problems on everything else. Believing in oneself, focusing on your vision for the future, and working hard to obtain it is really all that life is about. Even if you fail, you have the personal satisfaction of knowing you gave everything you could. Great song.
