Liam's Neighborhood - Groaning

Ever since 96 I've heard a rumbling
All the earth and its children are groaning
Anxiously awaiting for a great revealing
We're Waitin on it waitin on ya
As the crickets and the frogs have been singing
In the valley where the smog has been clinging
They remember long ago something that we chose to throw
Away away away
On that day we're all the same
Light that puts the sun to shame
Poor people standing in their honor
Pregnant with a great return
Groaning for the fruit to turn
Back to life and life forever
Im a rich man starving in my nice house
My field has yielded nothing for me
I wanna be a worker in the harvest
And give out of my poverty
I imagine someday I will understand
Plates are shifting footsteps fade into the sand
And I woke up discouraged
Then love came back like a firefly to share this crowded muggy summer night with me
On that day we're all the same
Light that puts the sun to shame
Poor people standing in their honor
Pregnant with a great return
Groaning for the fruit to turn
Back to life and life forever
