In a confusing time of destruction and void
Life breathes for rare finds
Appearing from the ashes of dust and reconciliation
A wish for a truly new nation
New voices rise in acapella
Strengthened by a chorus of ancestral yesterday
Be rid of the cacophony and collusion
Awakening to who we all really are
As these voices elevate
They help deteriorate
Division by strife and stripes
And all the while a new hero emerges
The every day hero
The guy next door hero
The girl you bring home to mom hero
The you and me hero
The speech pierces
The message delivered
The voice of reason and compassion
Forgiveness and expansion
Testing ground for emerging leaders
Refusing to play by the original social contract
A new land indivisible
Indeed now, perhaps liberty and justice for All
