They say
Where there is hope
There will be life
I say
What is life without
Happiness & fairness
What is life without
Proper funding
To buy even the
Basic Things
In life
I say
In hope
I see our children
Starving
In hope
I see our children
Gunned down
Everyday on our
Streets, and even
Inside their classrooms
In hope
I See too many
Heart broken
In hope
I see our blue Angels
Gunning down
My brothers, just
Because
Of the color of
Their skin
In hope
I see our elected
Officials
Corruptions at a
Different level
In hope
I see racism
Evolved
In hope
I see the world
On the verge
Of collapsing
In hope
I see pastors
Appearing
On television
Defending
The wicked
In hope
I see too many
Tears
From our
Mothers Eyes
In hope
I see nothing
But a path of
Thorns towards
Peace
In hope
I say
I am hopeless
And in
Hopelessness
I am lifeless
Yet
I’m still holding
On to hope
