Lead With Love

A broken system

Lead With Love

Watch and pray

I have no more to say

Tired of history repeating itself

You don't get tired of seeing people hurt

As a nation we are crying

As a nation, we are hurting

Y'all don’t listen to the people

Our voice doesn't matter

Our voice is being ignored

How do you expect people to follow the law if you don't follow the law

If only leaders lead with love, maybe things would be different

You lead with chaos

All we ask is you to do your job right

Do the job that the people are paying you to do

But then again the job was never built on love

It was barely built on fairness

So it will take a major change of the norm to make it right

A focus on love and not on money

Yes, a focus on love and not on power
