Cheyenne Jan 2015
Love and all its bandits
steal lives
and souls
and hearts.
No discrimination--
Won't tell good or bad apart.
With an arrow at their fingertips,
a bow that's poised to draw;
Love and all its bandits
steal
and give
to all.

When a love of humanity
Gives way to true grace
And it won’t matter one bit
Bout the color on ones face
Then I will swing high
Hit the heavens in sight
But life ain’t baseball

When a love of humanity
Allows no freedoms to be abridged
And it’s a given not just given
That all peoples have the right to live
Then I will soar prouder than the eagle cliche

When a love of humanity
Strips greed from our cause
Make justice our purpose
And we don’t need a legal clause
Fairness and equality
Success based equity
That each person is giving the same chance
The same education to help them advance
Then I will be happy

When a love of humanity
Reminds all who claim to be just
That it is not just us
Who deserve justice
Not just American because
I don’t see how those borders
Should define us
Then I will show you what it means
To reign supreme
As a good human being
