ESPERANZA…
Yes it’s sad, yes it’s tragic…
Yes, it’s even worse than magic…
Unemployment, Starvation, Crime…
It’s nothing new; we see it every time…
From natural disasters to homicides…
From political matters to genocides…
It seems like things get worse every day…

And how reformers came, fought, and conquered…
In spite of opposition and everything they suffered….
Men and women rose up to fight…

With free unlimited access to information, every day we learn…
Every citizen now has freedom of speech…
And every religious leader, the freedom to preach…
Our scholars whose discoveries received worldwide applause…
As we rapidly began to gain back all we lost…
The conceptuality displayed in our visual and theatre arts…
Demonstrates the tenderness and goodness of our hearts…
The whole world reckons with our sport champions and musical artists…
The uniqueness of our musical genre and our historical antiques…
Sun shines, river flows, plants grows, and rain falls…
Can’t you see…it’s not all bad after all…
Looking at the past, the present, and the future…
All our opportunities and laid down structures…
There’s light at the end of the tunnel if we can see through…
I believe there’s hope, what about you?…
