Marvin Gaye sang it ” Mercy Mercy Me” But I don’t want things to go back To the way they use to be I’m saddened by poverty I’m thirsty for unity I feel we need more community Purposeful change is needed Merciful motivation when seeded With compassion from you and me Can move all the obstacles Blocking the sun from shining on WE I long for Marvin’s dream of “Love And Happiness” To become a reality I wish we were all color blind And our brains didn’t undermine What our heart was meant to be Which is used to love one another Regardless of ***, religion or nationality
