ABOUT THIS SONG The hierarchical structure of the male dominated Piscean Age that we just left sets comparison as a fundamental where there will always be winners and losers. As one is culturally more desirable than the other, you see a whole lot of people being devastated by losing.Furthermore, the idea that there is scarcity and limited resource, even with feelings, emotions, and power, keeps one up and one down. This manipulation of power keeps someone in control, always winning, typically at any cost. This is actually all learned perspective and behavior. The new Aquarian Age that is upon us is all about mutually benefit where we all get our needs met to some degree. It is no longer my well being at the expense of yours. The idea of everybody winning is upon us. Where it gets confusing is in the wolrd of sports and games where the nature of it is winning and losing. The attempt to make it more loving by giving everyone a participation trophy had controversial effect as it watered down competition to an observable degree. What we are talking about in this song that is in the throat Chakra key of G is about a world built on humanity and compassion and empathy, where each helps the other. Sure there is friendly competition, but only as an inspirational tool to motivate me to improve on my skills and capabilities...for my own joy and accomplishment. At the time this was written, early 90's, it was a different world and the multitudes were suffering from not being "good enough". This was a seed planting song designed to open one up to the possibility. We had been programmed for so long that most could not even fathom the idea of shared befit. The 25 years since penning it have been profound and have revealed much about our individual and collective magnificence. Enjoy this loping country tune and find gratitude for how far you and things have come. For the young listener, play this so they can keep in their forefront the fine line between feeling good enough and less than. We are a humanity in process... |

SONG LYRICS: EVERYBODY WINS They told me as a little boy It’s a hard cold world out there Dog eat dog There ain’t no such thing as fair It’s competition Only the strong survive Got to be much better Than the other guy You either live or you die I couldn’t help believing There just had to be Another way That I could do the best I could Everybody else would Do the same No competition Nobody has to lose Nobody being told You’re just not good enough Nobody laughing at you Can you see a world Where everybody wins People helping people Everybody wins It’s kinda like a fairy tale It’s kinda like a dream But it really could happen Right here If we just believe If we just believe We’ve all felt the losing We’ve all seen somebody else Wearing the crown Left us wishing and a hoping How long you gonna let that Keep you down For we all are winners Teaching one another So rise above what they said You never could do And be the best that you can ©1989.
