A Political Statement

An innovative voice
From a crowd of conformity
They shun her ideals
Shred her religion
Destroy her beliefs

But she is the change
She's open-minded and loving
Carefree and accepting
A spark of light in the dark

A boy opens his eyes
And hears the lies
They spill like water
Thicken like blood
End like it's 2012

But he is the change
He's open-minded and thoughtful
Inquisitive and forgiving
A spark of light in the dark

She is a youth
With her head in the clouds
But conformists try
To pull her down
Again, again

He is a boy
With his mind wandering
But his parents try
To bring him back
Again, again

But she is the change
She's open-minded and loving
Carefree and accepting
A spark of light in the dark

He is the change
He's open-minded and thoughtful
Inquisitive and forgiving
A spark of light in the dark

They are the change
The sparks of hope in the dark
