To me it's 'feed my soul...' because it acknowledges a very important (although highly unpopular) universal truth - that humans have a spiritual side. Knowing that really helps given how difficult life now is for many of us. It's like turning on an internal warm candle/bright light, an inner storehouse of immense strength, that is always there in each of us - even if we don't know it. So it's vital we need to know how to enkindle (feed) our own souls.
I love this song for many reasons. The reason that I will focus on here is that it highlights the problems and their solutions. Sometimes a song will be all about the problem which makes us feel hopeless. Other times a song will be hope-filled but to the point of ignoring the very real problems, we face on our planet at this time. Together, we can all face the reality of our situation AND seek the solutions in searching for the "precious point of unity" that is the answer to so many of these ills. Thank you, Colby. You always call us higher!
WOW! This comment has got me feeling so inspired!! You put into words my goal when I write lyrics! I aim to highlight my read of the reality and my feelings about it, but also offer what I feel are the solutions to the world's challenges. I'm so pleased to hear that it is shining through!! 🙏🏼💙

I love all the comments. I love the call and response and that our 1 1/2 year old grandson Shayden starts running around the table in our living / prayer room when he hears the song.
"Unity, world-embracing vision? (Need it!) , I’m better than you? (Leave it!) How can I help you? (Need it!) , Forget God, no need to pray? (Leave it!) Feed my soul, praying everyday? (Need it!)" Love it!!
This is the best news!!! Please extend my appreciation to Rose for rocking the music!! Would love to join your junior youth group sometime to meet the members! 🙏🏽
When humanity truly learn to tap into universal education for all that brings out everyone’s unique talents and gems, the world will become like unto a paradise! 🙌🏽
Such a sad state of affairs when the school system is so intertwined with the prison system... education is supposed to be to unlock the God given talents and potential of humanity! SCHOOL TO EDUCATE BRIGHT MINDS!!!
love the music video and song! so excited for the full album to come it! a great song with a powerful and important message! we love to see it 🤩👏🗺️ such an uplifting and inspiring artist
Colby, awesome new song! "NEED IT!" Atlanta: City of Peace is fortunate to have you & Awu as a key official co-founders. Your ART makes you a healer! When Dr. Yunus, the 2006 Nobel Peace Prize Laureate, delivered an inspiring Atlanta speech on August 28, 2010 "I HAVE A DREAM" Anniversary, he said something VERY powerful about the Arts that verifies you're a healer... "For social structure, the arts and culture are the cure."
WOW!! Such an inspiring sentiment!! Music and the arts are so powerful... I'm so humbled to have the gift of creating! I pray that the song and video have a positive effect on all who listen! 😊🙏🏼
Love, love, love all the lyrics Colby. Uplifting, inspiring, refreshing, bringing hope, unifying, and world embracing. Keep moving the world with your music and your example for others to follow!
Connecting those adjectives with my music is the highest praise!!! Thank you so much for the constant love and encouragement! May the song recharge all those working to build a better world and better humanity! 🙏🏽🌍💙
Barbaraman! Can you put a beat to 95 Allah'u'Abhas? Ideally a 19-point melody set? (X5) Want my daily be reverent but not always melancholy, y'know? Challenge accepted?? 😎 🤜

What's your favorite lyric from "New World"?? 🌍👇🏼
I love “school to educate bright minds” and “take charge, educate their own head” and “legal system guided by morality”
Ahh I love it all
“Division?” “Unity, world-embracing vision?” Share this with E-40!
I'm better than you, leave it ❤
