"At this moment, there are 6 billion, 4 hundred, 71 million, 8 hundred, 18 thousand, 6 hundred, 71 people in the world. Some are running scared.. some are coming home. Some tell lies to make it through the day.. others are just now facing the truth. Some are evil men at war with good, and some are good.. struggling with evil. 6 billion people in the world, 6 billion souls -- and sometimes.. all you need is 1."

Take my love, take my land, take me where I cannot stand. I don&#039;t care, I&#039;m still free, you can&#039;t take the sky from me. Take me out to the black. Tell &#039;em I ain&#039;t coming back. Burn the land and boil the sea, but you can&#039;t take the sky from me.
