Hear Me Out
A mask is donned,
Yet Truth is still far,
Each lives are torn,
Still lies we are,
Open them, realise,
Time has limits,
Deadline, our demise,
Empty hearts, fill it.
Pour away doubt,
Indifference,
Share and be proud,
Life of reverence,
You are the key,
To passage of hope,
Together be free,
Or slaves to the rope,
I can't alone,
I need you,
Build a new home,
Liberty and truth,
Kind and wise,
Discover for change,
No wars, no hunger,
No poverty, no pain.
Please, I beg you,
Heed my cries,
A change is due,
In you it lies.
