One Day Soon

Gunshots

We don’t give a damn what happens to the

Have nots

Our preprogrammed thoughts and prayers

Like we are robots

As another mother’s burying her baby

It’s beyond crazy

Our rights

Over morals we choose vanity and

Despite

Cookie cutter Christianity

We fight

For all the wrong things

As we boast my country Tis of thee I sing

But one day

One day soon we’ll fly away

To a place where we will be free

No fear of death nor anguish

Nobody will be strangers

Just love

They say as if love was standing here in silence

Looking above while they procreate more violence

While expecting us to just go on ahead

As if faith without works isn’t dead

We won’t turn a blind eye to the city under siege

And when wicked principalities and greed do abound

Best believe our Father God will hold us down

One day soon we’ll fly away

To a place where we will be free

No fear of death nor anguish

Nobody will be strangers

One day soon we’ll fly away

One day soon it won’t be late

One day soon we’ll fly away

One day soon we will fly away

One day soon we’ll fly away

One day soon it won’t be late

One day soon we’ll fly away

One day soon we will fly away

One day soon we’ll fly away

To a place where we will be free

No fear of death nor anguish

Nobody will be strangers

One day soon we’ll fly away

In a land we’ll live peacefully

No fear of pain or danger

No hurt or hate or anger
