A Pair Of Voices

Just a pair of voices
Of daughters and of sons
Listen to the voices
Of the little ones
We can mend the broken pieces
Of a long lost pride
With a pair of voices on their side

Just a pair of voices
Of women and of men
Of blacks and whites and races
of all shades in between
Just a pair of voices
That say goodbye to slavery
And make the kinds of choices
That make history

With the voice of freedom
We shall find the way to peace
And the needed wisdom
For all the wars to cease
We can have what's ours
And not on bended knees
No more superpowers or colonies

Just a pair of voices
Of women and of men
Of blacks and whites and races
of all shades in between
Just a pair of voices
That say goodbye to slavery
And make the kinds of choices
That change history

And as the earth rejoices
As all of us are free
As we take the chances
Change the circumstances
With a pair of voices
As in you and me
