OUR COMMON DIVIDE

Compromise not criticize
when you analysis it`s not
peace you will find
Let the waters at your feet
settle and build our bridge
on common ground .

Keep holding on for one
more day eventually it all
fades away

You have a voice so be heard
gifted a choice who deserves
many listen but few understand
my open hand .
