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 go
