The Day Before Tommorow
The day before tomorrow
The day of today
Every given moment
Oh the prices people pay
Any time
Any place
Any background
Any race
The fight for freedom is dormant
We must quicken the pace
Dictatorship is upon
Communism we unknowingly face
Yet there is still hope
Just a thread, a trace
Regardless of color
Regardless of size
We must all unite
And stand up to fight
For somewhere an innocent woman cries
About all of this violence
Yet in the midst of the violence does it truly matter
About what shade of skin meets the eye
For we are all red
Deep inside
