Opinions Matter
Opinions matter
If you have an opinion
Don’t keep it inside
Don’t go with the fiction
Or truth is denied
Don’t reject any knowledge
And say you know squat
Just cos John Lennon
Spoke out and was shot
The world is a mess
And you want to make changes
Talk about peace
While the war it still rages
Offer solutions
Offensive to some
John Kennedy did this
And he died by the gun
Oppression is wrong
And the slave trade should end
Coloured’s are neighbors
And should be our friend
Many didn’t like it
But what he said was the truth
Abe Lincoln spoke freedom
Was shot by Wilkes Booth
If you have an opinion
You must let it out
If you don’t like oppression
Then stand up and shout
Reject all the bad things
Before they begin
Don’t fear the gunman
Or the gunman will win
