At Peace Beneath the Stars

With dreams the west created factory's, with dreams they invented car's, with dreams they build space ships, and travelled out past mar's, with dreams the factory's build job's, with dreams the jobs built careers, with dreams the people built house's, they didn't ask for you to help, they built there live's themselve's, you can build your life, you can build your dream, you can build your banks, you can build your factory's, you can build your shop's, create the dream, create the drive, learn to think and then to fly, Why shoud you expect a hand out, why should you expect a hand up, in truth we have two feet and legs, to walk upon ourselves, We have a mind that also dreams, a mind to build, our thoughts and schemes, we can save and work together, we can grasp at straws unseen, we can live and grow together, building dreams and goals undreamed, we can climb on glory's mountain, taste wealth in future streams. the poor becoming wealthy, on the backs of summer love, we can build the cars and kingdom's, live at peace beneath the stars.
