Choices

Lyrics

I can see the happy people coming up the road
I can hear their happy voices, joyfulness explodes
What they're saying with those voices brightens up my day
What they're showing me is that there is a better way

They are people of a mind
Don't let themselves be in a bind
They accept their fellow man
Black, brown, yellow, red and tan

I can see the saddest people, travelin' the same road
But unlike the happy people, they carry such a load
Glum expressions, tearful outlook, nation is quite dead
You can spot them, easily, in their hats of red

They are people of a mind
Rarely spotted being kind
Can't accept their fellow man
Hate for women, books they ban

Yet, I know that both have merit, both do have their flaws
One side wants to cancel others, one wants stronger laws
Taxes, tariffs, deportation, issues dividing all
When it comes to making choices, voters make the call

Voices will be heard, November
"Forget the past." No, remember
Find the path that forward goes
The road we take now, no one knows
