Light in the Sky
All men are created equal.
Light in the Sky
Have you ever seen the world at night when the stars light up the sky
When all the lights from earth are off and the sun begins to die
Have you ever seen a child’s smile when he or she is born
Or when you walk into the movies and it smells like fresh popcorn
Have you ever sat beside someone and asked them how they’ve been
When you make them smile from the basic fact that you are genuine
Have you ever walked across a bridge that soared across a lake
When you lose your balance and grab the railing and the whole thing starts to shake
Have you ever been so in love it’s scared you half to death
Or when your lover grabs your hand and you are short of breath
Have you ever packed one bag and left the rest behind
Left because what you were looking for you simply could not find
Have you ever lay in bed and wanted to never get up
Or looked in the mirror and realized you don’t need to wear makeup
Have you ever booked a room just for you to stay
Maybe just a place where you could get away
Have you ever stopped and looked at the bright, glowing sun
And maybe have seen the same bright glow after you have won
Like it’s all a prize and only one of us can win
But it’s a scary game when others come and take with grinning sin
Our world is solid, massive, our world is strong and whole
But it’s breaking down and tearing now and losing all its soul
For our world needs to be loved and cared much like the people within
And the respect for one another on this earth has begun to grow thin
Have you ever seen a man on a summer day when the temperature is burning hot
And not see him again until he’s on the news because he just got shot
It doesn’t matter what color you are, this goes for all of us
Lets learn to love and respect one another before our world is dust
I mean have you ever seen the sky when the stars fill up the night
If we all just stand together that’s when we’ll find the light
