Bright City

It's been said that a little man can move mountains

If his faith is as big as a mustard seed

But I know that in this life it's hard

To believe in the little things that we can not see

In this land in the city of broad shoulders

In the right part of town that we call the south side

In the midst of the railway cars

The bloody streets the endless bars

We strive to see a change in our minds and hearts

Dark city bright lights underneath the city light

Dark city bright lights tonight

In my home where the neighborhoods are distant

Where the pain of the past is remembered so vividly

But I pray for the day when we turn the page be on our way

And remember that we will bleed all the same
