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
