As I look up to the sky, I realize that I'm blessed to be alive Blessed enough that I'm able to carry a smile A gift was given to me that's called freedom of speech And there's no other place on this earth where I'd rather be But as I turn my TV on, something's horribly wrong Seems like we forgot how to get along Reports of child abuse is on the increase lately Kinda puts it in perspective, the smiles we're faking Correct me if I'm mistakin' a parent is supposed to be a childs hero 'Cause they need somebody to take care of 'em A house is supposed to be a childs safe zone So look me in the face and say there's no place like home I wish I could say there's no place like home I wish we could once just get along Maybe we'll get there someday But right now it's in my dreams I wish I could tell you it'll be okay I wish I could take your pain away But I'm not that strong I wish I could tell you that there's no place like home There's no place like home. And just when you thought that it couldn't be worse A nation kills another one, that's how politics work So meanwhile you're driving to work somebody's dying today Imagine a military army in your drive way Another mother loses her son Somebody's best friend dies point blank at the hands of a gun But guns don't kill people, humans do It would appear that everybody forgot what happened in '42 Racism is everywhere, the gap between us is expanding So justice is what the people are demanding But corrupted info, blind folds the common folk There's something that you oughta know Some people don't have a place to call home I wish I could say there's no place like home I wish we could once just get along Maybe we'll get there someday But right now it's in my dreams I wish I could tell you it'll be okay I wish I could take your pain away But I'm not that strong I wish I could tell you that there's no place like home "JFK SPEECH" I wish I could say there's no place like home I wish we could once just get along Maybe we'll get there someday But right now it's in my dreams I wish I could tell you it'll be okay I wish I could take your pain away But I'm not that strong I wish I could tell you that there's no place like home
