In Between

We all struggle with the same thing

So why do some have more suffering?

Why does the middle get a bad ring?

 

It's always one or the other

With no in between

A middle view cannot be seen

We're too pitted against each other

 

There's rich and then there's poor

The way between is "just a door"

But there's really so much more

 

Mainstream news now hides the truth

That most of us think for ourselves

They expect us to breathe their shelves

But that's not what we're meant to do

 

We need to stand for what is true

Let no one tell us what to do

So, please, let no one limit you

 

Most of us are in between

And don't believe it's a bad thing

We can dance and we can sing

And raise our voices to be seen
