Come On People?? Come on, all you people Be you, rich or poor Just stop, and take a minute To think, what you stand for? Are we the Land of Freedom? Of, Sisters and Brothers? Do we care only ‘bout ourselves Instead of all those others? We used to stand together Shoulders together, hand in hand We knew we were the Greatest Because, we took a Stand. But now, we stand apart And watch, with leery eye We won’t/don’t trust anybody And, nobody asks, “Why?” We’re lost, if we don’t come together Before, we’re who we used to be We can’t be, the second best Or else we can’t be Free. Quit watching Fox and CNN “They” all died for that Choice So each and every one of us Could speak, with our OWN Voice. We can’t let them lead us They aren’t some superstar We must each, speak our Voice And, tell them who, WE are. Del “Abe” Jones 07.31.2011 Del "Abe" Jones |
