2012

                                                                        

There’s violence in our streets

Our hearts are filled with fear

Our families cannot eat

Their faces stained with tears

Yet there is talk of hope

A promise soon of change

Still that hundred note

Comes with so much pain

Is 2012 a dream?

We can make it all come true

By following our star

Although it seems so far

The one that splits that night

That’s always stood for right

Two thousand years ago

Three wise men made it so

And through all space and time

The message was the same

I’ve come back once again

and teach you to walk on water

To save your sons and daughters

This can’t be what was planned

For our American land

Its not why my dad burned

That draft card or mom burned

Her bra in that march

On Washington DC

It was 1963

They burned for each other

And that is why there’s me

Lets choose hope not despair

You know we’re here to care

Out of the darkness now

Into the Light somehow

With love as our guide

In love we must abide

To bring us to that shore

For those we so adore

We must learn to walk on water

To save our sons and daughters

Is 2012 a dream?

Can we follow our star?

The one that stands for right

To save our sons and daughters.
