Waking up I took a look around
And man I was disgusted at what I found
Lies, hate, racism, pain
The list goes on it drives me insane
And to know that I’m a part of it, it hurts to remember
That everyday I’m a part of it from January to December
12 months 52 weeks 365 days of the year
Someone somewhere is living in fear
Fear of hate and discrimination
What are we we’re supposed to be one nation
How can a nation stand on wounded pillars?
What we don’t know is our words are the killers
A house divided cannot stand
But if we the people lend a hand
We can end this pain
This menace can finally be slain
This pain that has us on our knees
The cripples the world from sea to shining seas
Now imagine a world where pain wasn't in our midst
Where we don’t fight with our words or fists
A world a nation finally on peaceful ground
Where we the people, us no longer bound.
