Only One
Step by step we walk a million miles
Moving over mountains, through the sky
Slowly wearing out the souls of our shoes
Carving canyons in our wake
Hand in hand an act across the years
Brother follows Brother though the dark
Children clinging to their mothers clothes
Teaching them to walk in time
One by one fair faces fold and gray
Filling in the footsteps of the past
Lost among the many slated faces
Hiding hearts of quite discord
I ask for them to hunger
The undiscovered night
A bright and frantic future
A sweet inspired light
To turn and say “who am I?”
And breed a broken rank
To raise a revolution
And paint a face once blank
All it takes is one.
