Poem
Is this thing on? I've got something to say! Is this thing on? Probably no one is listening anyway! We live in a place based on unity Why are we having such disparity? We can't represent without proper tools Dissing each other is just plain cruel. I thought we were supposed to be indivisible which means our bond can't be broken United we stand, a truer statement has never been spoken. Rally up for a good cause Make your voice heard, change those terrible laws Celebrate and Recognize we aren't all the same; Keep the peace, make sure everyone is treated humanely Protect our mutual assets don't play the fools Justice and equality, protect our schools Be careful of small eyes and small ears Guard small hearts and calm large fears I don't want a wall, I don't want a raid I don't want the piper to be paid I object to the plans of evil being laid I don't want a war, I want peace, love and light Injustice and hatred I will continue to fight. I fear this boat is sinking fast I'm taking our leaders to the task Make good on your promises that you will protect us Instead of hiding behind dollar signs with attempts to deflect us Show me what you will do to save our beloved red, white and blue. I'm tired of the rhetoric, tired of the double talk with no action really can't get no satisfaction I'm tired of hatred, subterfuge and lies I want to see heart, compassion, a gentle reprise Of the things that make this country great clear Consciousness, love instead of hate We are all descended from people looking for a better life and chance to be great We need to remember this before it's too late. The blood of our forefathers ran out as they pushed for democracy Don't let their sacrifice be made into a mockery. I don't agree with decisions that have yet to be made; I want a choice I will continue to raise my voice. Is this thing on? I've got something to say! We need to rally up and keep fighting for a new day. Tides of change are coming swift and steady I'll stand on the front lines, poised and ready Intolerance and inhumanity I will never answer that call. Unity, love, acceptance, unites us all.
