The Vote Is Sacred
Lincoln once said famously, stronger than the bullet, our vote shall be
Our crowning jewel, our cornerstone, a hard won right, we can't let go
Protests, Marches, Rallies, Speeches, it shows us just how far our reach is
But to bring about the change we need, we must cast our vote, with urgency
The vote is sacred, this is true, everyone deserves their due
A right secured through peaceful means, to give it up, our past demeans
Democracy is fragile, flawed, those who hold the power, make the laws
Ignorance is no excuse, indifference unchecked, becomes abuse
The vote is sacred, this is all, each of us must heed the call
A right secured at such a cost, to let it languish is such a loss, such a loss
To deny the vote, is a violent deed, though some dissemble and mislead
Our voice therein our power lies, that when silenced, slowly dies
The vote is sacred, this is true, everyone deserves their due
The vote is sacred, this is all, each of us must heed the call
The vote is sacred, this is clear, to vote in freedom, without fear
A right enshrined in dignity, one voice one vote, for all to see
Our crowning jewel, our cornerstone, a hard won right, we can't let go
Protests, Marches, Rallies, Speeches, it shows us just how far our reach is
But to bring about the change we need, we must cast our vote, with urgency
The vote is sacred, this is true, everyone deserves their due
A right secured through peaceful means, to give it up, our past demeans
Democracy is fragile, flawed, those who hold the power, make the laws
Ignorance is no excuse, indifference unchecked, becomes abuse
The vote is sacred, this is all, each of us must heed the call
A right secured at such a cost, to let it languish is such a loss, such a loss
To deny the vote, is a violent deed, though some dissemble and mislead
Our voice therein our power lies, that when silenced, slowly dies
The vote is sacred, this is true, everyone deserves their due
The vote is sacred, this is all, each of us must heed the call
The vote is sacred, this is clear, to vote in freedom, without fear
A right enshrined in dignity, one voice one vote, for all to see
