The lyrics to Lonnie Liston Smith's song "Expansions" seem to be calling for unity and peaceful coexistence among humanity. The first line, "expand your mind to understand we all must live in peace to earth," suggests that in order to achieve peace on earth, we must first broaden our understanding and awareness. The next line, "extend your hand to help the plan of love to all mankind on earth," urges listeners to actively participate in spreading love and kindness towards others.
The chorus of "expand your mind, expand your mind" reinforces the idea of widening our perspectives and thinking beyond ourselves. It encourages listeners to challenge their beliefs and step outside of their comfort zones to attain a greater level of empathy and compassion towards all people. The song's message ultimately stresses the importance of coming together as a human race to achieve a common goal: peace.
