----------------------The Imaginary City-------------------------------

Imagine a city where creativity runs wild,...
Our hearts full of love, with hope like a child.
We collect moments not things,
And everyone is treated like queens and like kings.

Take the highway of progress then take a right,
Everyone's welcome here, we'll leave on the light.
No hunger or poverty, opportunity never runs dry
When you hurt I do too, your tears I also cry.

No matter what we believe, we believe in each other.
A city build on respect and bursting with colour.
Equality gained through collaboration,
Violence eliminated by education.

Generosity, not greed. Empathy, not pity.
Freedom for all in our imaginary city.
Here we foster growth and reduce the pollution,
Hard work and kindness is the solution.

Hope cities like this will one day be customary, be the new ordinary.
Looking back didn't all cities start out imaginary?

Society: seven billion, four hundred and four million, nine hundred seventy six thousand, seven hundred and eighty three.
Brothers, sisters, mothers, fathers, you and me.

Today you get bullied for your weight.
It's not your only trait.
You try to make a change,
But all you get is hate.

You work twice as hard to be great,
But you're paid a smaller rate,
Can't negotiate just because you menstruate.

You believe in a different God than the majority,
So you're treated without equality,
not considered a priority.

You're a girl in love with a girl,
So you're treated like you made the wrong choice,
Stripped of your voice.

You're skin is darker than white,
So instead of human rights you get indicts.
Can't shine bright if they turn off your light.

A girl born inside the body of a boy,
Want to be yourself, live a life full of joy,
But anyone different we try to destroy.

Society: seven billion, four hundred and four million, nine hundred seventy six thousand, seven hundred and eighty three.
We're not living free,
Still not being all we can be.
Too many still cannot see,
That change can start with you and me.
