A Voice For Safety
A Voice For Safety
A new world is here
Not the Utopia dreamed of
Fear and anger fill the streets
And people have nowhere to turn
Schools, stores and concerts are not safe
Hundreds are gunned down
Walking on the street can be a death sentence
If some lunatic decides he is having a bad day
Police and government are useless
Powerless to help
This world needs a single person
One to stand up and say enough is enough
There will be no killing today
No one will be harmed today
Then, with their voice
People will stop their hate speech
And we may be able to survive
At least for another day
