I Can See
In a world that I can see
No, not quite that far away from me
I see a better place for humanity
And this place started with common courtesy.
There are no wars;
We all work towards sustainability
So that the world that our children see
Will be green instead of burgundy.
This world is called a surmised place
One that can never be
But in life you only witness
What your mind will allow you to see.
The powerful do not want you to know
How strong humanity can be
Because they make their living off of fear and injustice
And that is the stark, cold reality.
Let’s all leave today’s world behind,
It seems murky and polluted to me
After all, what’s the point of freedom
In a place that won’t see the next century.
