Who we are and who we want to be Who we were conceived from Where we're headed to Are reflections of our Fathers dreams Reflections of where they wanted us to be Starting with the very first Father And ending right now, right here with you and me
My how slightly the World has changed around us All beginning in some Foreign dusty land Even our Religion was not so easily gained It began with a cross and a gentle soft spoken Man Even at a time so new before the year counts began People were persecuted for personal views And Religious beliefs were at someone's else's command
Wars moved over the populations Not missing a single time or place Gouging Mother Earth's beautiful scenery Forever Spilling blood into her crisp white sands Forcing even the smallest Child to take a killing stand For some had taken their freedoms And some had stole their Lands
It started before the Bible In some distant lonely place Where someone named themselves the King And these Kings took the Peoples Liberties away Some are never satisfied with a single thing they have So from the very beginning of History The Kings took the souls from others And stole all the people had
Some things haven't changed much They are the same around the world They no longer name themselves the King Those who rule this, our only World They still fight against each other They still steal the peoples Liberties Killing innocent Children Or keeping their rights firmly in clasped hands
When will we learn history repeats itself These Wars of the chosen few When will the rape of Mother Earth cease to grow Before there is no earth for me and you When will the killing to get another's gains stop Can we give the Indians back their Tribal lands Or the Monks their Buddhist Temples God knows they never hurt a King Someone tell the Chinese They were just a place to nourish our ravished Souls When will the Laws stop building Growing more numerous over this Free Land For soon we will all have to be Lawyers And check the Laws before we can even think or start to plan...
Starting this new Millennium This new time for every man Lets give this all some serious thought And change the complexion of these issues at hand Lets learn to live together Lets jointly run the World Lets do something different Lets not repeat our horrid past Let us finally make a stand for Peace And end the Holocaust of people here Not just in some foreign unknown Land
Lets start spending time with our Children again Lets again spend Sundays in our homes Lets stop paying to have someone else be the Parent Material things are not worth the price we pay each year Lets stop the killings in the Schools Let that gentle soft spoken Man back in And wash away our Children's fears Lets stop the Wars and pilferage And bring our future generations Peace The one true reflection Our Fathers had in their dreams @copywrite by Diana 1999
