A song for our times
Verse 1:
In the land where shadows grow,
Truth’s a seed we seldom sow.
Voices silenced, freedoms sold,
Dreams are bought with tarnished gold.
Chorus:
Can you hear the people cry?
Underneath a darkened sky.
Stand together, hand in hand,
Reclaim the soul of this great land.
Verse 2:
Promises like shifting sand,
Leaders with deceitful hands.
Turning brother against brother,
Building walls between each other.
Chorus:
Can you hear the people cry?
Underneath a darkened sky.
Stand together, hand in hand,
Reclaim the soul of this great land.
Bridge:
Echoes of the past remind,
When justice was both deaf and blind.
We won’t return to days of old,
Our story’s yet to be told.
Verse 3:
Rise above the lies and fear,
Hold the ones you love more near.
In unity, we’ll find our way,
Through the night into the day.
Chorus:
Can you hear the people cry?
Underneath a darkened sky.
Stand together, hand in hand,
Reclaim the soul of this great land.
Outro:
Together we’ll resist the fall,
With love and truth, we’ll stand tall.
The power’s in our hearts to see,
A land where all are truly free.
Blessings to you, my friends - STAY STRONG!
