Tomorrow's Dawn
TOMORROW DAWN
BY LAWRENCE M. NUNEZ
Arise my brother, it is tomorrow
It is the dawn of a new day
as brothers we will band
together we will stand
our leader is on the way
our souls cries out to our fathers of old
for along the way we’ve lost the gold
Losing our children, not in pride
to gang violence and those that will ride.
But hope cometh only with tomorrow’s dawn
Oh great leader be true we pray
For many are trying to lead us astray
In sheep clothing and words to woo
They claim they know, you know who
Dividing they conquer, they refuse to stand
Arise o’ great leader appointed from above
guided by the our ancestors as instruments of love
Lead us to the promise Land where plantain grows
the fishes run wild and the cool breeze blows
give our offspring hope for the dawn of a new day.
