What if Jesus was white and Ronald Reagan
was colored
Would the sun be the moon and what is now
land, be water
If time was not real and space had an end
Would the animals be god and men graze the
lands
What if truth was of no value and hope was
never needed
What if we didn't pay taxes would the
government still need us
What about the millions of dollars used to
campaign for the politicians,
That amount of money could pay salaries and
purchase groceries and cover many school tuitions
If a child refuses college, the world turns
its back in scorn
If one buys into the system, then must
we all
What about dreams being fulfilled
And no more sick patients dealing with the
stresses of hospital bills
Money seems to play god
Money seems to be the devil
Never mind the wickedness of the world
Never mind the revolution story of the
rebels
If a rebel I am, then a rebel I will be
But I will fight for the rights of all men
to be free
To be treated fair
For equal opportunities
All blood bleeds red and all hearts beat to
somber psalms
Injustice is injustice
Yet they're never punished for their wrongs
They point the finger
But the fingers show who was really at
fault
What if Jesus was white and Ronald Reagan
was colored all along.
