NIGHT FLIGHT

I fly in the sky when it is late at night

To see the things that is wrong or right

I see the drug passing in the street

As the kids fight for what they think is their beat

I watch a mother as she tucks her children in

And listen to her soft voice tell how life begin

Then I hear the awful cry of a battered wife

And see the cuts on her arm from a butter knife

Then I turn to the country where I think I am free

And visit with a owl as it share with me

We have watch the air as it has changed over the years

As all the chemicals makes our eyes fill up with tears

The weather has change for when I was younger

We would know the difference between winter and summer

I am tired for it is time to end this flight tonight

As the sun begins to change the night into light

But I know there is hope for this mighty land

If people would stop and give out a helping hand

So as I rest while you go out to work or play

It will be up to you to make a change today
