i live in dreams and the visions i see
i refuse to accept the hard cold bite of reality
i detest even the lessons of history
for my dreams are not mere fantasy
…to believe in a world of light not shadow
to hold persistently in the promise of tomorrow
…to glory in the human despite frailties, pain, and sorrow
to know that love is eternal though my own life i borrow
In the end the reality of death will not have its sting
the reality of oppression will fade as justice will spring
from our heart of hearts, all goodness will bring
all the love and the happiness because we believe our dream!
