WALLS
When you venture far enough away
The earth looks like a ball
If the shadow of a line appears
That would be the Great Wall
It's like looking at a heart that's torn
To see this World of doubt
For half of us are locking in
What the other half locks out
A revolution of heart
Will break down every wall
Why can't we stand together
For the good of one and all
Where there's freedom people will create
Boundaries on their own
Some may crush you if you stumble on
Their precious pile of stones
Without freedom the stones are crushed
To reinforce the wall
And fools line up to grab the pieces
When tyranny takes a fall
A revolution of heart...
Can we ever come together as one
Walking hand in hand
With division in our own hearts
How can we make a stand
Some walls may be just paper thin
Some are as thick as your skin
And where the wall around you ends
Is where the world begins
