about

My young daughter brought a little painting home from grade school one day. I asked what it was. She said it was a different kind of sun. Such an unusual phrase. That got the wheels turning for me. Next thing I knew I was writing a protest song. As a songwriter, you just never know where your next inspiration will come from - but you run with it when you find it!

lyrics

9. A Different Kind of Sun (Dave Sills) © 2019

Hey you, you’ve got a lot of nerve
They crowned you king when a cage is all you deserve
Yeah you, it’s like some disease
You’re rulin’ with fear and hope is down on her knees

Well I’ll tell you something
There’s a new day dawning
Look out ‘cause it’s rising

It’s a different kind of Sun
The one that we’ve been waiting on
And we’re headin’ for new birth
Rising up from the Earth
It’s a different kind of Sun
That’ll shine down on everyone

Hey you, you’ve got a lot of nerve
You’ve been pissing in the beer of those that you’re supposed to serve
Yeah you, it’s like some disease
You’re looking for a forest by cuttin’ down every tree

Well I’ll tell you something
There’s a new army marching
It’s on the horizon

It’s a different kind of Sun
The one that we’ve been waiting on
Might not be the cure
But one thing’s for sure
It’s a different kind of Sun
That’ll shine down on everyone

It’s a different kind of Sun
The one that we’ve been waiting on
And we’re headin’ for new birth
Every soul on the Earth
Sees a different kind of Sun
That’ll shine down on everyone
