I had a dream once… Yes, I did. A dream worth having as a kid. That one day, We shall live as one And all our troubles Will be gone. That wars and violence, Crime and cons Will bear no mark Upon our homes. That trashing, terror, Torture, tears Will be long-gone as will all fears… Our world today is not a dream. It is a sadly darkened scene. Where men and women, Young and old, Forgot you can't buy dreams With gold. And yet there's love and peace somewhere. True unity - for those who dare To fight the system, Doubt the laws - The latter are the former's jaws… I praise those people, Young and old, Their hearts are silver, Minds are gold. We march for freedom, Side by side, Our faith is pure - Direct our stride. We won't give up, We shan't give in As long as we all Have a dream. 30-8-2013
