Street

the streets keeps calling us
pulling and tugging everyone
come here, come here it says
today would change your life

i look front and i look back
questioning and wondering
if today is that faithful day
when my world would change

look at its colours and see its lights
people hustling and bustling
sons and daughters of men
moving to and fro; to make it a day

yea! the sun is up, bright and smiling
its going to be a great day it says
as it gives light and warms the earth
blessing the human race with beauty

all around me, i see faces of mankind
happy and sad; in sorrow and joy
many fell by the wayside; yet many win
today is that day: my destiny has changed
