the dissatisfaction growing in me about being human
how long denied the self-destructive egocentric way
while pretense is survival and corruption rules the day
still i want to hope
optimism
humanism
still i want to dream
and believe
in humanity
still i want to believe the dream can come true
still i want to believe in you
maybe there is something more i can do to explain
the insensitive ignorance can only lead to pain
how long repressed children taught to ignore their own senses
while life is built on wasteful greed, abuse, and pretenses
still i want to hope
anything is
possible
still i want to dream
and believe
everything can change
still i want to believe the dream can come true
still i want to believe in you
how long can you hide behind god
how long can you shirk your responsibility
how long can you live with your head in the sand
ignoring the cruelty of the way you live
would you dare compare all you take with all you give?
what would the scale tell you
if you dared to be true?
maybe there is something more i can say or do
to somehow get this message into the heart of you
where you cannot ignore the imbalance of mankind
so you cannot choose to remain deaf, dumb, and blind
and still want to hope
we will survive
humanity
we can live the dream
living in peace
human family
still i want to believe the dream can come true
still i want to believe in you

it is up to you
be the dream
and the dream will come true
