Brighter Day Lyrics


I watch my generation die
I watch the heads of nations lie
I watch the homeless on the streets
I stand here helpless just lookin' at my feet, yeah
I watch the children run away
The bullets fly where they would play
I watch a junkie fade away
I ain't got an answer but I sure got things to say
Hey, hey I gotta find a way
'Cause the road is dark
Gotta light my way
Gotta fight the fear in my heart
Oh, I pray, I live to see
A brighter day, hey hey
I watch the old folks sit alone
They talk to ghosts they used to know
Where are the wise men of the tribe
Where are the midwives and the newborn's cry, yeah

I wished that I could turn back time
Way back before there was corporate crime
We'd fight the wind to plant our seed
When the earth was stronger than human greed
Hey, hey, I gotta find a way
'Cause the road is dark
Gotta light my way
Gotta fight the fear in my heart
Oh, I pray, I live to see
A brighter day, hey, hey
I'm not tryin' to tell you what's right or wrong
I'm not trying to be clever
You gotta hope things get better
Even when they never, hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, I gotta find a way
'Cause the road is dark
Gotta light my way
Gotta fight the fear in my heart
Oh, I pray, I live to see
A brighter day
I gotta find a way
'Cause the road is dark
Gotta light my way
Gotta fight the fear in my heart
Oh, I pray, I live to see
A brighter day, hey, hey

2. The reggae artist Werner "Semi" Francis



Saint Lucian reggae artiste Semi has a new focus and is now singing for the conscious at heart.

Semi has released two albums “Collections 1,& 2” with executive producer Yves Lewis and a string of hits including his chart topper “Put Yourself In My Place”. He’s acquired a wealth of experience as a musician having worked the hotel, club and cruise ship circuits, which eventually led to his migration along with the band Summit to the United Kingdom.



With managers Pam and Paul Castle, the band appeared on many high profile shows, one of them being the BBC’s pebble Mill and through publisher David Most, the group signed a recording contract with RCA records. Since then Semi has performed alongside the best in the business - Sanchez, Gregory Isaacs, Culture, John Holt, Shaggy and Wyclef Jean. Semi drew further recognition with his band Oct 4 when he performed at the opening of the St. Lucia Jazz Festival.



Semi now back in St. Lucia, after recording and performing in Boston under the WildCubby music label has purposed his music with conscious lyrics with an aim to 
Stimulate positive thinking in all whom it gets in contact with.



Love is the Key the debut single off his new album “Conscious Paradise” have toped the local charts picking at number one. 
The album produced by the young but very talented Danyl Daniel features eleven tracks of modern roots, classic and pop reggae all with an inspirational message delivered in Semi’s signature silky smooth vocal style.



The full release of this new album is due out in the first quarter of 2011 and will be available worldwide. Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
