See You In the Light Lyrics


When I wake up in the morning, I hope I see you in the light.
When I wake up in the morning, I hope I see you in the light.I have been traveling down this river, so many rocks pop up in my site.
I've got to make some quick decisions, should I go left or should I go right.
I pray for guidance and protection, it keeps my boat water tight.
But, I know if I just keep on believin', every little thing is gonna be alright.When I wake up in the morning, I hope I see you in the light.
When I wake up in the morning, I hope I see you in the light.The vampires gather around me, angling to take a bit.
They want to drink my blood of courage, and try to take away my fight.
But no, no, no, they can't do that, for one truth I've learned in life.
You want to scary away the vampires, you simple guide them into the light.When I wake up in the morning, I hope I see you in the light.
When I wake up in the morning, I hope I see you in the light.In the morn, in the morning.
In the morn, in the morning.
In the morn, in the morning.
In the morn, in the morning.
In the morning.
In the morn, in the morning.
In the morn, in the morning.
In the morn, in the morning.
In the morn, in the morning.

In the morning.And when my time is done, I did some right, I did some wrong.
Call my name to kingdom come, spread my wings in flight.
I hope that when my day is over, My love, I see you in the light.When I wake up in the morning, I hope I see you in the light.
When I wake up in the morning, I hope I see you in the light.In the morn, in the morning.
In the morn, in the morning.
In the morn, in the morning.
In the morn, in the morning.
In the morning.
In the morn, in the morning.
In the morn, in the morning.
In the morn, in the morning.
In the morn, in the morning.
In the morning.

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/.
