Equality begins with the ability to reach for dreams. We’ve made strides, but there is a lot to go.

Why do You Get to Go?

You take the highway, ready for road
I have to stay, and to carry the load
You need to go, you need to be free
I have to stay here to carry your dreams

Cause you dream big, you dream high
Its always your turn, when is it mine?

Why do you get to go?
Why do you get to leave?
Why is all of this mine?
When do I get to be free?

You get to go and make the big stand
I get the kids, I live on the land
You go to school, you get the degree
I get to fade and lose what is me

Cause you dream big, you dream high
Mine can just wait til they’re ready for sky

Why do you get to go?
Why do you get to leave?
Why is all of this mine?
When do I get to be free?

BRIDGE
Hope never gives in, hope doesn’t fade
This time its my turn to lead the parade

Cause I dream big, I dream high
Yes all my dreaming is ready for sky.
