One day I hope that I can look to any stranger And know that they share the same liberty One day I hope that we'll look back on today And feel the revelry Over the time we came together in our different factions And collectively demanded action No one has the right to stand tall Using bent backs to enjoy their vantage point We'll make no bones about tearing supremacists from their pedestals We'll feel no regret for smashing icons of tyranny We'll feel no guilt for tearing apart our society which repression built We'll make no apology for disrupting the complacency of systematic oppression We'll never lament over silencing the police state Which breeds hateful soldiers Who foam at the mouth At the thought of flesh under their heel It's time to heal We're a global population of similarities We all have a story Even though they all unfold differently Some are scribed in languages we can't read And some of the scenes happen in places we've never been Everyone is just trying to finish their chapters And move on to the next With the same anticipation, fear, love, and uncertainty Which flows through us universally The vibration of our shared consciousness is elevating The despair is losing its grip and allowing us to extend our hand And raise the people around us It's time to stop fearing dystopias Tear up the blueprints and start constructing utopias in their place We'll show the world this generation's capacity for compassion Regardless of colour, class and creed Those who disagree with us will brand us crass and callous Look past the cognitive dissonant red mist Honour the multitude Trigger irreversible change With love, introduce a new attitude infused with empathy We may never fully understand everyone's pain But their words will teach you all you need to know To share their sorrow and allow you solemnly vow That you'll never stand idly by And allow them to share the same pain again
