It’s an interesting thing to see
It’s like sleep walking in a dream
Everyone sees things that are wrong
But we all just turn a blind eye
And move right along
Does nobody really care
About the words
That move through the air
They change the way we think
and feel
But we are not allowed to use them
Because of a newsreel
We all have a choice
To decide whether or not
To use our voice
Using it the right way
Means listening first
Without influence or sway
We can open our ears
And let them breathe in the years
That show us what's right and wrong
Like listening to the words of your favorite song
The monotonous day to day
Will show you
The everyday people who
Smile
Wave
Say "hi"
And continue their day
We can go to the store
To say "hello"
To those wonderful people
Stocking the shelves
And running the show
We all are here for a reason
We have words
To express ourselves
And it is not treason
It is time for those
Who have idly sat by
To stand up
Say enough is enough
And give it another try
