It’s a new day

I’m taking it on

The old ways

Should be gone now

Except for the learning

And best healing ways

Whatever helps us all get along

Most surely should stay

**

It’s always a new day

Let’s take them all on

The old ways

Should just be gone now,

The ones that discriminate

Based on bad assumptions

And views that don’t include

Each one of us

*

Why can’t we trust

Each day that arrives?

Why can’t we just

Get on with our lives?

**

It’s hard days

When we can’t get ahead

Because someone else

Has been misled

*

Rumours of differences

Have gone to their head

The past should melt

We must cut harmful threads

**

It’s a new day

It’s nearly dawn

The past ways

We should get on now

Consider new learning

Find the best healing ways

Whatever helps us all get along

Most surely should stay

**

It’s always a new day

Let’s take them all on

The past ways

Have already shone now,

The ones that discriminate

Based on dim assumptions

And views that don’t include

Each one of us

*

We should discuss

Each day that arrives

Why can’t we just

Improve more of our lives?

**

It’s hard days

When we can’t get ahead

Because someone else

Is full of dread

*

Misunderstood differences

Have gone to their head

The past should melt

We must cut harmful threads

*

And sew together

The seeds for a new way

The materials that covers

Everyone

All the way

No true love is dead

It’s always a new day
