CATCH A BREAK
by Ed Charles

No more wars to escalate
No heroes left to decorate
No breaking news to overrate
Maybe we’ll catch a break

No stranger’s home to devastate
No prisoner to mutilate
No leaders to assassinate
Maybe we’ll catch a break

No more god to contemplate
No place left to congregate
No more love to consummate
Maybe we’ll catch a break

No field of dreams to pollinate
No ray of hope to radiate
No masterpiece to recreate
Maybe we’ll catch a break

How much can we tolerate?
It’s dangerous
Motivate
Navigate
Procreate
Resonate

No tender touch to infatuate
No dying love to rejuvenate
No romance to intoxicate
Maybe we’ll catch a break

No spirit left to elevate
No time alone to meditate
No end in sight to celebrate
Maybe we’ll catch a break

How much can we tolerate?
It’s dangerous
Motivate
Navigate
Procreate
Resonate

No ganja leaf to medicate
No warm place to hibernate
Just sit at home and vegetate
Maybe we’ll catch a break

No black man to incriminate
No woman to humiliate
No immigrant to terminate
Maybe we'll catch a break

No leadership to emulate
No grand plan to formulate
No escape to orchestrate
Maybe we’ll catch a break
Maybe we’ll catch a break
Maybe we’ll catch a break
Maybe we’ll catch a break
