What I Want To See

[Verse]
What I want to see
Having seen the afterbirth
Of an aborted soul
And the blind eyes
Of a volunteer slave
Lost in the obedience of their worth
Having felt the hurt
Of hearts not beating as one
Tossed around like rubber balls
Only to bounce back in our faces
Making our vision blurred
And our faith obscure
Having heard the screams
And the frantic sirens of a cry for help
For a child on fire
A drowning man
And a woman consumed by hate
Having smelled the stench
Of a rotting heart
An infected mind
And contaminated thoughts
Of how we treat each other
Having tasted the stale bread
The spoiled milk
The rancid meat of a meal
Not fit for a dog
I know what I want my senses to feast on
I know the music I want to hear
I know the air I want to breathe
I know the love I want to feel
For all good people and things I see
I want to see touch taste hear and smell
The freshness in the air
The integrity in our hearts
The determination in our will
To make this world a better place
To make the rain wash clean our souls
And quench the thrust of a dried out existence
And make us believe
All things are possible
And God however you call him or her
Has never left your side
I want to see the sun smiling
And watch him caress the moon
And give her stars to wear in her hair
No prisons no locks no keys no killings no laws
To control the free of us
But a paradise a heaven on Earth
Where everyone can sing and dance
To their own music
And we live only to bless each other
