The turning and the churning
is in each of us
the desire to make change
if we can persevere
ignore the rain
The slashing and the gnashing
of self-sacrifice and teeth
the pain of labor’s love
if we have patience
release the white dove
The prowling and the growling
rumbles from deep within
the courage to make our demands known
end our children’s suffering
see them grow
The timing and the rhyming
we each find our own beat
make joyful music for the world
wrap each other in our arms
keep our hearts warm
Together
together
together
And the beat goes on
