You've got to feel there's a place
An open time and space
Adjusted to your pace
With no need to plead your case
Then with ease you may embrace
Without ever having to erase
Any trace of whom you face
In the entire human race
Open up a place, a home
To share within the borders
Of your confining land
The barren soil's awaiting
The giving of your hand
The giving of your hand
The barren soil's awaiting
The giving of your hand
No need to disguise yourself
Or criticize yourself
Demoralize yourself
Or paralyze yourself
You've got to just create that small spot
From where you'll receive and give what you've got
To build that shack, then raise that castle
A dwelling for more than one
A common house for those who meet
Your work has just begun
Open up a place, a home
To share within the borders
Of your confining land
The soil is celebrating
The giving of your hand
The giving of your hand
The soil is celebrating
The giving of your hand
You've got to organize yourself
And realize yourself
Personalize yourself
Actualize yourself
You think you're near
And then you fear your own change
Wanting to remain within your old range
Just take a breath and hold your own
Continue that new way
The power of your habits
Will not be here to stay
So open up a place, a home
To share within the borders
Of your confining land
Your soul is elevating
The giving of your hand
The giving of your hand
Your soul is elevating
The giving of your hand
The giving of your hand
The giving of your hand
The giving of your hand
