Here In Capetown

there has to come a way 
to make change today
here in cape town 

bad things are going down 
all around the town 
here in capetown 

violence on the streets 
this city"s losing kids 
yet everyone I meet 
is still pleasant enough to greet 
here in cape town 

when the system stumbled 
when the walls were crumbled
the faithful still stayed humbled 
here in cape town 

so what would cape town be 
pictured without the sea ?
ape town.....could it be?
