I wonder what Lennon would say
if he could see the world today ?
Would he cry for all the innocents lost ?
Would he cry for the soliders who paid the ultimate cost ?
Would he smile , that women were finally getting some of thier rights ?
Would he like the music we play , or the some of lyrics we write ?
I can only imagine what he say ...
He wanted peace ...
He wanted brotherhood and sisterhood...
But its seems its as fleeting as a rainbow...
He'd want love ... for all man ..
regardless of race...
Why is this world filled with so much hate? ...
The more we learn the less we know ...
The more we know , the less we care ...
Why?
Oh why ....
We're becoming so densitized ..
We as society beleive so many lies...
Were becoming as whole so numb ..
So unaware...
Together but strangers ...
Walking in hand in hand .. but on our phones ...
Talking but not really listening ..
waiting to speak ..
only so few left who care ..
who genuinely just want to be there .....
who value time , companion , heart , soul and loyalty...
it's a crazy world we live in ...
When I sleep let me dream of peace , of brother and sisterhood of a time when others cared .. journies were treasured together ...forever .. family wasn't just a word ...
When people liked to help each other .. just to be kind .. oh how sometimes it be nice to rewind part of history .. fast forward others...
Let me remember te lyrics to that anthem .. Imagine ...
What would Lennon say if he could see the world today ...
And when i wake , my strength to face the journey that lays ahead...
where hearts seem lost .. Pain is so deep
and so much innocence is dead ...
some i pray will wake up and become aware .. and join the journey ...
some will stay happy to be asleep ...
and unaware.. some will give up ...
Look at how many commit suicide day by day ...
Thier goals, thier dreams they allow to die .. thier families realize too late ...
It seems like this death has been full of death ...
We need not waste a single breath ..
But we humans are strange creatures it sometimes takes us to lose everything to realize the value of what we had ...
Such is the irony of life ...
just imagine what Lennon would say if he see if he could see the world today ...
Imagine...
