Irie (Sound Mind)
“Some would say they have a peace that passes all understanding. In the Caribbean, we would say everything Irie.” (Vincent Charlow)
Amidst global turmoil, let us hold onto hope and stand with courage, love, and a sound mind. Trust in the peace that surpasses all understanding. IRIE! (Royce Lovett)

VERSE 1
Could it be, that ‘heaven on earth’ ‘s in front of me?
In passing faces on the street
In hearts that are scarred with suffering
What does it mean, to honestly let you live in me?
With all of my fears and frailty
Open my heart and eyes to see
CHORUS
Give me a sound mind
Power and love
We need a sound mind
Power and love / As you do this healing work in us
VERSE 2
Let it be, us learning to love the last and least
Us reaching down empty hands to hold and build a home
For every weary soul, and even our foes
BRIDGE
So many days it feels impossible
Trying to do this on my own
Woke up this morning not sure which way was up
I thought by now that I had grown
This weight getting heavy holding
I had no way of knowing
The power it takes to let things go
