Last time people began to come together, they drafted the men for a needless war (https://www.britannica.com/event/Vietnam-War) effectively robbing the joy being birthed in their hearts.

Will the people allow it again?

Look over yonder
What do you see?
The sun is a-rising
Most definitely

A new day is coming (ooh, ooh)
People are changing
Ain’t it beautiful? (Ooh, ooh)
Crystal blue persuasion

Better get ready to see the light
Love, love is the answer (ooh, ooh)
And that’s all right

So don’t you give up now (ooh, ooh)
So easy to find
Just look to your soul (your soul)
And open your mind

Crystal blue persuasion, hmm, hmm
It’s a new vibration
Crystal blue persuasion
Crystal
Blue persuasion

Maybe tomorrow
When he looks down
On every green field (ooh, ooh)
And every town
All of his children
And every nation
There’ll be peace and good brotherhood

Crystal blue persuasion, yeah
Crystal blue persuasion, aah-aah
Crystal blue persuasion, aah-aah
(Crystal blue persuasion, aah-aah)
