I WANT TO BELIEVE

 
I want to believe that fighting will stop
I want to believe that peace will surface to the top
I want to believe we should love every human on earth 
I want to believe people will respect each other regardless of birth 
 
I want to believe blue skies and green fields are sacred things 
I want to believe there is nothing better when a little bird sings 
I want to believe that living on the streets will soon disappear 
I want to believe that people should not descriminate the poor and the queer
 
I want to believe the streets will be free of all crime 
I want to believe all these things will happen in my lifetime
