Lyrics
"One Small Step"
by Kevin Kasck
2/2007 music lyrics 11/2008
Words can be jaded
Sometimes overated
In trying to describe
An emotion felt worthwhile
We all have traded
Impulse response unabated
For a civilized ideal
Of how we all should live and feel
Differences appear
Or is it how we tend to hear
Preconceptions that are clear
Ideologies we fear
Coexistance is clear
To people that hear
Others just turn away
And cover up their ears
Bridge
----------
Changes in the way
We see each others causes
Changes things we think and say
Similarities
Instead of differences
will enhance us more and more
each day
We can turn
It all around
Or we can all
Just burn it down
The decision's
In the way
We approach our
Present days
We can stay
Stuck in the past
Or make our future last
Take one
Small step today
Take another one
Right away
( out lines )
Take one
Small step
Today
Take one
Small step
Today
