What Can You Do?

What Can You Do?
Kevin Davis 2025

What can you do when you are frightened to say anything,
but too frightened to not say how you really feel?

What do you do when there are those among you who are blind
to reality and justice, but are your family and friends?

What can you do to keep your family safe and secure
when your future is threatened and all you hold dear is trampled?

Do you stand up and fight, or do you lie down and give up?

I am scared of our future and my own prosperity, but cannot sit back and do nothing.

This is the time for all good and decent people to stand tall and show that decency and honor mean something.

We must return our country to what it was at its founding, a democracy that honors truth and justice for all.
