Once I saw a promised land
Wrapped in many shades of green
But I sat and watched the world go by
Confused by all the things I've seen
Should I stand up say what's on my mind
Point my finger at the wrong I find
Let it linger till another time or let it go

I've seen forests turn to fields of sand
To satisfy a rich man's greed
Now the tears that fall upon this land
Won't help to grow a nation's needs
Should I shout out from the highest tower
Should I take it to the highest power
Show the plague that turns a whole world sour, or let it go

I seeked comforg, in a sea of fools
And wrapped their lies around for protections
But if lies were any answer at all
Were just adding to this world infection
Can I turn and smile and kiss it away
Leave it lying for another day
Should I fall down on my knees and pray, or let it go

There's a passon that destroys all the caring
And walks across the flowers of affection
Breaks them down into the soil we are sharing
And leaves us with this life rejection
Am I strong enough to stand my ground
Lift my head and show the strength I've found
Try to keep from hell or heaven bound
Or let it go, Don't let it
