Let us make a change
Let us make a stand.
Good people signed in
saying yes we can.
Let us sow anew and make well known
how we gave birth
to this
our great home.
We stood for the shy
bellowed for the weak
exorcised the demons
that stalked our dark streets.
Sat down with villains to
play their crooked hand
poker faced
then dared to make a stand.
We've laid miles of track
reckoned with
our faith
gambled with our lives
our severed limbs scathed
spilling bloody rivers
digging countless mines
leaving comfort zones
dragging fat behinds.
Let us make a change
Let us make a stand.
Good people signed in
saying yes we can.
To knead understanding
we'll add yeast and salt
and rise to the challenge
to see our own fault.
Let us make a change
Let us make a stand
Good people signed in
saying yes we can.
Remember now
why we belong
to something real
to something strong
and fight, good people
for what we believe
Or lose it all
and die
in our disease.
Let us make a change
Let us make a stand.
Good people signed in
saying yes we can.
