Because We Can Poem by Christopher Tye

Because We Can

Let's make a stand and change the world,
It's time for a world and society fit for all,
A place where we are all really equal,
A world led by the many not the few.

Let's make a world where the disabled,
Can become people of greatness,
Where disability is embraced not just tolerated,
Mental and physical disability shouldn't hold people back,

Let's make a world where racism has died,
Imagine all countries and people's being one,
Just one united family of humanity,
Because we are all very similar really.

Let's make a world run by people power,
Call out and topple the tyrants,
Cast aside governments who don't listen to the people,
Let's end the monopoly of global corporations.

Let's have a world where the wealth,
Is spread out as a commonwealth and all is fair,
After all a world where billionaires are getting richer,
And children starve to death is just plain wrong.
