Right now
We’re learning how
To save this place
And take a bow
Nothing we do
Should be taken for granted
Our words are true
Written or chanted
Dip down low
Admit the advantage
Life’s for show
Doesn’t mean we planned it
Give us some credit
For setting things right
Help us stay steady
Bring our dreams to the light
*
Right now
We should learn how
To save this place
Fallow fields plow
Good things we do
Should not be taken for granted
Kind words that are true
Care for when planted
Cradle till high
Promote the advantage
Life we know
Should get more help standing
Give us some credit
For fighting the fight
Help us get ready
Till our life’s in the light
*
Ease our mind
With adequate resources
Don’t leave us behind
Use all your forces
If you stockpile, hoard and sit on surplus
You’re not being fair
No matter what your discourse is
Change the system
Change the taxes
Top dogs ignore us
That’s what the fact is
Change our mind
So people don’t suffer
Help us get better
For the bottom line
*
Right Now
We should all learn how
To save this place
For love avow
All that we do
Wouldn’t be taken for granted
These words are true
Offered not demanded
As far as we go
Care has the advantage
No one we know
Should go empty-handed
Give us some credit
For efforts out of sight
Help us keep getting
Dreams for life to the light
