Now I've seen my share of lies from chuds. Politicians and fascists will all taste blood. Let us join together to rise above. Solidarity, praxis to uphold the love, yeah! E hele mai kākou yeah! (Let's all go together) E hoʻo piʻi hou! (To rise up again) E hele mai kākou yeah! (Let's all go together) E hoʻopiʻi hou! (To rise up again) Well, I feel your struggles to deal with the pains, Of corruption and hate, yeah, it's all the same. My brothers and sisters hear my song! We must come and unite to all stand strong, yeah! E hele mai kākou yeah! (Let's all go together) E hoʻopiʻi hou! (To rise up again) E hele mai kākou yeah! (Let's all go together) E hoʻopiʻi hou! (To rise up again) Walking together with fists in the air. Fightin' hand in hand. Stop us if you dare. Fueling the fire and fanning the flames, Rising up from the ashes and sparking the change, yeah! E hele mai kākou yeah! (Let's all go together) E hoʻopiʻi hou! (To rise up again) E hele mai kākou yeah! (Let's all go together) E hoʻopiʻi hou! (To rise up again) We're embracing each other and shouting our calls, Of liberation and peace needing justice for all. We must fight the oppressors and take back what's ours. So future generations can reach for the stars, yeah! You can kill my body and you can take my life, E hele mai kākou yeah! (Let's all go together) but you can never kill my soul. E hoʻopiʻi hou! (To rise up again) My soul will live forever! E hele mai kākou yeah! (Let's all go together) I have the people behind me, E hoʻopiʻi hou! (To rise up again) and the PEOPLE are the strength. Kū kiaʻi ʻāina! Kūʻe! (Protect the lands! Fight!) Mahalo ke Akua! Eō! (Thank you Divine Creator! I am here!)

Aligning to the things that don't resonate. My mind is constantly battling my soul. This don't make sense, it's too much weight. Like clash of titans fighting for control. With each passing step I take, For a global healing to stand in solidarity. So put your differences away, And preach about peace, love, and prosperity. Messages from the people that I love. To realize the damage that's been done. Understanding the heavenly blessings from above. Let it go. We can all heal as one. With each passing step I take, For a global healing to stand in solidarity. So put your differences away, And preach about peace, love, and prosperity. Now go into the world and shine your light. On a quest to change the world, one at a time. There'll people there that's trying to pick a fight. Stand in my truth. Own it. Make it mine. With each passing step I take, For a global healing to stand in solidarity. So put your differences away, And preach about peace, love, and prosperity.

My angel will shake my foundation. I pray for it incessantly, like a deep mantram incantation. She will water and pull on my roots. And wake me up from my slumber. With passion and care she imputes. When will we she? When will we be? My angelic savior. When will we she? When will we be? My angelic savior. Nothing but dreams, a wild hallucination. She is intangible. I can't feel her. But her beauty's revealed in imagination. I trace and paint her with my mind. Who is it my angelic savior? The one who will be with me in due time. When will we she? When will we be? My angelic savior. When will we she? When will we be? My angelic savior. Concentrating. Reveal to me her image. The picture is so clouded and blurry. And you should know, she is a privilege. Codified constructed with good intentions. Like a bee buzzing in meadowy grasses, I try to catch her, but only get dissension. When will we she? When will we be? My angelic savior. When will we she? When will we be? My angelic savior.

Wooooah! Yeah! Yeah! Rise up together and take it back! Washing away the filth and poisons, Remove these heavy chains and these prisons. Of our colonizers, oppressors, and abusers. And when it is all finished, clear is the visions. Fight for the future. Fight for the elders. Kūʻe! (Fight!) Take back the power. For the Earth Mother. And the Sky Father. It is time! Take it from the cowards. Fight for the keiki (kids). Fight for the ʻāina (land). Kūʻe! Take back the power. Doin' it for ʻAkua (Divine Creator). And the ancestors. Oh, it is time! Now is the hour! Our language. Our culture. It has all been stripped. For Scientific lens' on our sacred spaces. Agitation, destruction huge in form and size. In the name science and for the human races. Fight for the future. Fight for the elders. Kūʻe! (Fight!) Take back the power. For the Earth Mother. And the Sky Father. It is time! Take it from the cowards. Fight for the keiki (kids). Fight for the ʻāina (land). Kūʻe! Take back the power. Doin' it for ʻAkua (Divine Creator). And the ancestors. Oh, it is time! Now is the hour! Shut it down, gas station of the Navy. Jet fuel mixing with water in the cracks. We say no more pollution and destruction. The source of our purity tainted, Landback. The lands that were bereaved and has been stolen Makua our beautiful valley, a violation. Protectors reclaiming our rights to ceded lands. We must stand up, stand strong before annihilation. Fight for the future. Fight for the elders. Kūʻe! (Fight!) Take back the power. For the Earth Mother. And the Sky Father. It is time! Take it from the cowards. Fight for the keiki (kids). Fight for the ʻāina (land). Kūʻe! Take back the power. Doin' it for ʻAkua (Divine Creator). And the ancestors. Oh, it is time! Now is the hour! We are not Americans! Resistance is its own reward. These movements are important. It's the way we want to exist with our environment. Don't stop. Persevere and keep going! Kapu aloha, aloha 'āina is important to where we will give our lives.

Thinking back to the good old days We were all a happy family. Don't know where this is road is leading But this is where I'm supposed to be. Try my best to make you proud. This path I walk alone. Building bridges to take me home. Someone please come and save my soul, This path I walk alone. Building bridges to take me home. Oh why is it hard to let go. Won't someone please come save my soul. Checked out don't know how long Flying high soaring like a dove. I'm a broken man that's gone. Say a prayer for me my loves Try my best to make you proud. This path I walk alone. Building bridges to take me home. Someone please come and save my soul, This path I walk alone. Building bridges to take me home. Oh why is it hard to let go. Won't someone please come save my soul. Time has passed I'm getting old. 38 lights I've had to roam. Immeasurable distance now I am finally out the cold. Trying my best to make you proud This path I walk alone. Building bridges to take me home. Someone please come and save my soul, This path I walk alone. Building bridges to take me home. Oh why is it hard to let go. Won't someone please come save my soul. Thank my loves for saving my soul! Thank my loves for saving my soul! Thank my loves for saving my soul!

The title, Perfecting Perfection, is a play on irony in that nothing is perfect in life. We are always striving for it as we journey and walk our paths to find the harmony and balance from within.
