“New Beginning” is a Folk remake of A Tracy Chapman song that expresses One Shade Of Soul’s feelings about the state of his beloved America with its now ever present random & mass killings, school shootings, hate crimes & the rise of Donald Trump. O.S.O.S. says we can’t make America great AGAIN because America always was and always will be great. We the people should just start all over by being great Americans to ourselves first and then the rest of the world. We must love and be kind to one another. America’s greatness is after all only the greatness of all those whom occupy America. As the lyrics suggest, it’s time to start over. sometimes things can get to a point where you cannot build on them anymore and that’s time to just start over.
lyrics
Whole world’s broke
Ain’t worth fixin’.
It’s time to start, all over make a new beginning.
Too much pain. Too much sufferin’.
Let’s resolve to start all over, make a new beginning.
(chorus)
(Start All Over) X4
Now don’t get me wrong,
I like love and livin’.
But when you wake up & look around at everything that’s goin’ down…
All wrong.
You see we need to change it now, this world with too few happy endings’
We can resolve to start all over, make a new beginning.
(Start All Over) X8
Instrumental…
Whole world’s broke
Ain’t worth fixin’.
It’s time to start, all over make a new beginning.
Too much pain. Too much sufferin’.
Let’s resolve to start all over, make a new beginning.
(Start All Over) X8
