John, the soul, the Lord, the saviour, drums beat loud
John, the soul, the Lord, the saviour, drums beat loud
The Master calls, I come, I heed the call,
Friend to friends, foe to foes, I give my all.

These three are my names, the echo within,
These three are my names, where all things begin,
Allah, Jesus, Ram, they all reside in me,
By any name, call out, and you will see.
Whatever's asked, whatever's wished, I bring,
Friend to friends, foe to foes, my heart will sing.
John, the soul, the Lord, the saviour, drums beat loud

These stars of the screen, they shine and gleam,
These stars of the screen, a waking dream,
They charm the hearts of all, in every way,
And in their hearts, my spirit finds its stay.
When heroine's met, hero's rage takes hold,
Friend to friends, foe to foes, a story told.
John, the soul, the Lord, the saviour, drums beat loud
John, the soul, the Lord, the saviour, drums beat loud

Through English tales and native films I see,
Through English tales and native films, I breathe free,
Each movie's tale, a seed within my soul,
That whispered dreams, "Become a whole."
Fate's hand then turned, my spirit led astray,
And in a hotel room, I found my way.
Friend to friends, foe to foes, I give my all.
John, the soul, the Lord, the saviour, drums beat loud
John, the soul, the Lord, the saviour, drums beat loud
