Changes
By Bren Freeman

How do you change the world, through words or lines
A song of unity or a poetic rhyme
Tell me the course, and I will spread to all ears
I will scream it loudly, for all to hear

Give me the solution to feed all kids
Heal the illnesses and keep hatred hid
Discrimination .... would cease to exist
Prejudice ..... would no longer persist

Tell me the actions, the steps to take
I will shout from mountain tops for everyone's sake
No longer will bombs be killing for peace
Tell me before it is out of reach

Religions are killing in their belief's name
Using our Creator for blame, is there no shame
The One that created the heavens and Earth
That gave each of us our personal birth

If He wanted us dead, He could put an end
To every life if He wanted, He can transcend
Killing in the name of anything, is no excuse at all
Can't even go to a shopping mall

Without someone wanting to destroy or kill
Just to enjoy self-satisfaction, a personal thrill
We all should open our eyes and wake up
That we as humans must make up

Our minds to the future we choose
If we fail, every one will lose
I can tell you how to change the world, this is true
That we need a new value system that all must view
To change the world, to make gray skies blue
It must start with changes in me and you
