Love Can Conquer Hate!

I’m a dreamer who tries to stay optimistic

It was my belief that if we wait

eventually, at least this dreamer thought,

love would conquer hate.

 

But when I see what’s happening in my country...

my own president forbidding me

to welcome others with open arms

I have to ask...are you freakin’ kidding me!

 

When our government won’t allow people in

(like when we banned others from the bus)

it’s not only failing those we ban...

it’s failing all of us.

 

We the people must stand up

and be as vocal as we can be!

We are the only ones who can bring love back

and fight this tyranny.

 

We can try to remain optimistic

but we can no longer wait!

It’s time for all us dreamers out there

to help love conquer hate.

 

Our nation has been wounded from within...

its reputation scarred...

I know that love can conquer hate...

 

I just didn’t know...it would be so hard.
