There was a time, not so long ago,
where people lived a simple life.
They had their chores,
They had their loves,
They had their amount of strifes.

And as time went on and things developed,
And we became this super race,
the depth of pain and loneliness
increased and took its place.

For we increased our wealth, but not our wisdom.
We extended our opportunities, but not our hearts.
It is a cold, cold place
when those in higher places
want to control and run this race.

But there are those who seek the truth.
There are those who shine their light.
They are the ones who lead the way,
for a new world to come one day.

A new world of changed policies,
that work for ordinary souls,
where truth and love reign.
Where people once again can feel whole!
