Ike's Plea - Isaac Hayes

Listen, it’s a heartbeat

Could be yours, could be mine

Could be the heartbeat of a child

Could be the heartbeat of a whale, a dolphin

It could be the heartbeat of the rainforest

Our ecological system

If that heartbeat stops, then we cease to exist

Every, went out in the countryside and started like away from the haze of the

city and the lights

Then look up at the sky and see the stars

Does it make you feel small

'Cause how big and how vast the universe is

You’re fragile

Life is fragile when you look at the internal universe

Life on this planet is fragile

We have to preserve it and protect it

So let’s stop the violence

Let’s stop the killing, let’s stop destruction

And do our best to preserve it

We are all so fragile
