Story Behind The Song
I wanted to write about the changes in the world (environmental and personal) using love as a means for positive change.
Song Description
Life can be challenging but love can change how we respond. If we give love a chance and allow love to decide, we as a people could live in harmony.

Lyrics
Nobody knows what to believe anymore
Few want to lead
Nobody wants to follow
Read the signs
Or feed the hungry
Pointing at sinners
Exposing lies
Cries of loneliness
Our sad demise
Expectation lost
Confusion the cost
Let love decide
Who taught us to hate?
What color is love?
In the wake of quakes
Rising water and strong wind
Breaking, bending
Earthly foundations that separate
Dictating what we eat
How we breathe and
Whom we love?
We can save the world
If we decide to let love try
We can if we try
Let love decide
The rumbling in our stomachs
Is not from hunger
But from the changes in our cycles
Our weather
The growth of our children
Erectile dysfunction
Attention deficit disorder
Depression
Lack of intimacy
The inability to
Inner-stand
Define
Or reach out and touch the genesis of love
No wonder
We feel pain
Yet
I believe
We can save the world
One poem at a time
If we try
One song at a time
Together
We can
Because we are different
We can make a difference
If we step aside
And let love try
