I was dreaming in my dreaming Of an aspect bright and fair And my sleeping it was broken But my dream, it lingered near In the form of shining valleys Where the pure air recognized With my senses newly opened I awakened to the cry That the people have the power To redeem the work of fools From the meek the graces shower It's decreed the people rule The people have the power The people have the power The people have the power The people have the power Vengeful aspects become suspect And bending low as if to hear And the armies ceased advancing Because the people had their ear And the shepherds and the soldiers Lay beneath among the stars Exchanging visions and laying arms To waste in the dust In the form of shining valleys Where the pure air recognized And my senses newly opened I awakened to the cry The people have the power The people have the power The people have the power The people have the power Where there were deserts I saw fountains Like cream the waters rise And we strolled there together With none to laugh or criticize And the leopard and the lamb Lay together truly bound I was hoping in my hoping To recall what I had found I was dreaming in my dreaming God knows a purer view As I surrender to my sleeping I commit a dream to you The people have the power The people have the power The people have the power The people have the power To dream To rule To wrestle the world from fools It's decreed the people rule It's decreed the people rule We have the power We have the power We have the power We have the power

Come be my april fool Come you're the only one Come on your rusted bike Come we'll break all the rules We'll ride like writers ride Neither rich nor broke We'll race through alleyways In our tattered cloaks so Come be my april fool Come we'll break all the rules We'll burn all of our poems Add to god's debris We'll pray to all of our saints Icons of mystery We'll tramp through the mire When our souls feel dead With laughter we'll inspire Then back to life again Come be my april fool Come you're the only one Be my april fool You're the only one Come, come Be my april fool Come, come We'll break all the rules

about

PRF Monthly Tribute Series Chicago, Illinois

Here's the scoop: A band is picked at the start of the month. Musicians have the full month to record songs by that band, or about that band, or in the style of the band - it's real loose! At the end of the month, we vote for our top three recordings. The winning entry selects the next month's band. Good times and killer recordings since 2014! ... more
