Here's a little uplifting bop for your weekend. I don't usually love Valerie June's idiosyncratic vocal style, but I still appreciate her and listen to every record. I loved the sound of this song, so I followed along with the lyrics. "Are you ready?"

Are you ready to see A world where we could all be free? As branches of an endless tree May we seek and find it Although we may not all agree Still live together peacefully

Watching the news almost every night Telling the stories of all that ain't right But what could be done from a house and a home? Sink in the sofa and feel so alone Getting the courage to do something small Lifting the spirits of all that you saw Feeling the tiniest spark in your heart 'Cause only an ember can light up the dark

Are you ready? Are you ready? People get, people get, people get Ready, yeah Ready, yeah Ready, yeah

Tell me, my brother, how love goes around Neighbor to neighbor, we create a town City to country, a nation is formed Person to person, a kindness is born There is a beauty in the number one Just like the moon and just like the sun So if you're on the couch and you're feeling alone May you feel moved after hearing this song\
