Our Brief Moment In Time (2020)

Listen with the intent to hear what's in my soul

Not with the intent to respond with that talking point 

you've been sold

Talk to me with respect and I will listen to your message

Don't bark at me with your lecture that is both passive and aggressive

See me as a fellow human 

who with you, share this land

Not as part of some ungrateful group of folks you view as lesser than

Then we can converse, dialogue, coexist

Without all the malice, ill will and clenched fist

Cause this ain't about the media or some hateful politician

This is about what lives beneath the surface 

You know, when you think that I'm just 

bitchin'

This is about life 

about livin', loving, laughin'

pleasure, persistence and powerful passions

It's about you, me, and who we aspire to be

Our hopes and dreams, our family

Our existence on this earth as humankind

And, what we plan to do with this blessing 

of our brief moment in time
