I dreamt a dream,
dreaming that life would be free
from the fear that I see
Free from politicians
ripping the roots,
from under my knees, we siezed,
the opportunity to be free
we held each other
imagine THAT
and rationalize,
our passion and cries,
for everyone that was killed by our lies
we stood together
and loved one another
Understand,
THE strings were cut from
the puppetry of the MAN
I dreamt a dream
I dreamt a vision,
a united religion,
muslims and christians
buddhists, hindus,
ALL ELSE that I’m missing
We melting together
in mother-natures kitchen
a republic of sorry
Jamming so VAST
from city to safari
monopolies crumbling
Like asteroids on atari
And all THE WHILE,
we were asking
who the fuck are we?
I dreamt our ideas expanded
like the universe
Infinitely bursting
like luscious lips pursed
and we thirst
for moral perfection,
Intellection infected our minds
Like inception
I dreamt a dream
that Martin Luther King
his words
were words
that we would sing
and his words
would give
life to the lifeless,
bring
brightness to crysis
turn
evil to niceness
defeat the virus
of ISIS
entice us
people to, write this
via papyrus
fight this
evil
gripped in vicegrips
I dreamt of lightness
like this might
we might use
to smite this
abuse
by mankinds unrighteous
I dreamt through the night
finally provving that HUMANITY
WE’D BE ALRIGHT
I dreamt a dream
