Ok.. I volunteer with the local Barack Obama campaign in Greenville, SC. A few weeks ago I was given the task to put together some audio to play on loud speakers in the neighborhoods that we were canvassing for voters. I went to the site www.yesewecansong.com to get music inspired by Barack. After being on the site for 2 hours watching every song video, personal testimony by individuals and ads all I could do was cry. Because I thought that all these people CAN'T BE WRONG. But then again, I thought, hey a lot of people voted for GW Bush also... lol So I didn't want to leave anything to chance by not voicing my inspiration as well to help convince people that may read this, to share it with your friends, colleagues, family and enemies. Because you just don't know who's idea or thought it may change.

As I stare into the future
The present is bleak
But on the horizon
I see a change is going to come
I see courage
I hear singing
I hear choruses
Of beautiful melodies
As I continue to look
I see that they are
White, Black, Latino, Native American and Asian
And their voices are the same
Singing, screaming, chanting
Some, out of breath, panting
In unison...
O-BAMA.. O-BAMA... O-BAMA...
O-BAMA... O-BAMA... O-BAMA...
O--BAMAAAA...
Which inspires me to pen my vision
Of the everyday Americans
Raising up an everyday American
Who cares about Americans everyday
That's studied to show himself approved
I see the future is now
One Brave American that Makes them Aspire
Millions of voices
With the same choices
One Brave American that Moves them All!
