Forecast

In a very short time we have gone into outer space
Searching and looking for another human race.
We believe to know of universal time and its beginning
Sometimes taking defeat and turning it into winning.

We knew of a big black hole before one was ever seen
I understand it was a star that had died just like every human being.
Earthly medicine far out races the problem and intent
Sometimes we have the cure and must wait for the sickness to be sent.

Production is out racing the population and we need to distribute
There is still an imbalance as to how and what to contribute.
The world has much to learn and we should get off the dime
Think about your life, who you are and do you have enough time?

The peace corps was a wonderful start then left to wander
The good ship "Hope" to acknowledge we do not have lives to squander?
Doesn't the Arab want their desert green
To feed their children and add to the Muslim scene?

We need belief, commitment and hope in what we do
Honor the past but to prepare the present for our children is long overdue.
A gentler more peaceful life that all can contribute, partake; and share
As the leader of the world it is America's destiny to care, be fair; and share.
