In the middle of the night it came to me   A bridge to your ecstasy   Images of a burned out hell   You comin' in with your mission bell      Don't sit, waiting for the thing to come   Get lit, feel the power of one   Don't sit waiting for the thing to come   Get lit, feel the power of one      Little sister let's go downtown    and dance to the night sounds   Hear the bass wafting down the hill   From Echo Park, my Jamaica in L.A.      Don't sit, waiting for the thing to come    get lit feel the power of one   Don't sit waiting for the thing to come   Get lit feel the power of one      It's in the shadows, in the sweet scent breeze   In the riding out of a death disease   The prettiness shining into complete   In the bitterness burning up in the heat      Don't sit waiting for the thing to come   Get lit feel the power of one   Don't sit waiting for the thing to come   Get lit feel the power of one      I was drowning in champagne eyes   Skipping along in compromise   When dignity rattled me on the back   And my rebel mind needed to attack      Don't sit waiting for the thing to come   Get lit feel the power of the one   Don't sit waiting for the thing to come   Get lit feel the power of the one      My sweetness you were with me when   I was sad at an evolution bend   hiding alone like a rolling stone   Now I wanna know the power of your home      Don't sit waiting for the thing to come   Get lit feel the power of one   Don't sit waiting for the thing to come   Get lit feel the power of one    Don't sit waiting for the thing to come   Laugh in the face of a hundred planet guns
