It's Time
"It is always the right time to do the right thing." Martin Luther King, Jr.
Tick tock, the pendulum swings,
in a clock is where time sings.
Tick tock, back and forth, left, right,
eternally day and night.
Tick tock, in society,
left to right polarity.
Tick tock, there is so much pain,
how can we be one again.
Tick tock, in equality,
is a place all can be free.
Tick tock, time for a new start,
look for the beat of a heart.
Tick tock, in the mirror too,
reflect this beat within you.
Tick tock, t'will not be easy,
we all must strive to be free.
Tick tock, the new paradigm,
with resolve, all in good time.
