Crazy, Crazy, Crazy Lyrics


Shine on
All my people who are broken hearted
Shine on
From the place where all life has been startedWhen you need fresh air
Go beyond horizons
To your place in the sun
Shine on
Let your heart beat boundless
Like your faith in the one.It's crazy, crazy, crazy
Don't tell me that you don't care
It's crazy, crazy, crazy
No stopping to this warfare
It's crazy, crazy, crazy
We're breathing in the same air
It's crazy, crazy, crazy
Don't tell me that you don't care
You don't care
No stopping to this warfare

You don't care
NoSing on
From the language of your ancestors and
Sing on
Be playful in your inner sensesLift your head up high
And rejoice for all you see
Without your eyes
Sing on
Like a bird that's making love in sunset skiesIt's crazy, crazy, crazy
Don't tell me that you don't care
It's crazy, crazy, crazy
No stopping to this warfare
It's crazy, crazy, crazy
We're breathing in the same air
It's crazy, crazy, crazy
Don't tell me that you don't careNo life's worth more than any other
No sister worth less than any brother
No life's worth more than any other
No sister worth less than any brother
No life's worth more than any other
No sister worth less than any brother
No life's worth more than any other
No sister worth less than any brotherIt's crazy, crazy, crazy
Don't tell me that you don't care
It's crazy, crazy, crazy
No stopping to this warfare
It's crazy, crazy, crazy
We're breathing in the same air
It's crazy, crazy, crazy
Don't tell me that you don't care
You don't care
No stopping to this warfare
You don't careSomebody, please
Send us a prayer.

Michael Franti is a gifted and much-heralded spoken word artist and political activist from San Francisco, CA. As leader of the politically and socially-charged group Spearhead, Franti is at the forefront of hip-hop's renaissance, expanding the music's boundaries as he draws on funk and soul-driven beats. Through his music and poetry, Franti tackles a range of issues--the criminal justice system, corporatization of our daily lives, AIDS, gay rights, homelessness, the death penalty, drug addiction and suicide.

His project Spearhead produced the critically acclaimed Home in 1990. The album contained his biggest single, "Hole in the Bucket," a thoughtful lament on the plight of the homeless, and "Positive," which addressed the growing AIDS epidemic. The album boasted adept funk samplings, sinuous guitar vamps, and soulful, melodic tracks about family and social injustice. 1997's Chocolate Supa Highway was not as pop-friendly as Home, but neither did its themes of kidnappings and police brutality lend themselves to such overt accessibility. Its mixture of harsher musical styles -- techno, rock, and funk -- was a step forward for Franti as his world view broadened and deepened. In 2001, Franti released Stay Human. In it he expresses his anger at the system, his advocacy of love, and his belief in freedom through individuality and self-expression through a set of songs that revolve around a fictitious death penalty case. In it, his embrace of the genres that inspired him is achieved with eloquence.

Earlier projects of Franti include The Beatnigs and The Disposable Heroes Of Hiphoprisy, which had more of an experimental/industrial sound, but addressed many of the same social/political issues.

As a celebration of the Election of Barack Obama Franti recorded the Obama Song, offered as a free track on downloaded at their offical website, www.michaelfranti.com/.
