Proud of Us
Summary
I think about children when I think of the future. And when they look back on 2020 they'll see how their parents and previous generations struggled to keep them safe and happier.
they just want to be proud of us
proud that we made it out
happy to know we didn’t kill each other on purpose
leave each other on purpose
infect each other when we were our worst and at our lowest
we raise the bar of what we can survive everyday
every time
this aint nothing new to us
our children will be proud of us
thats the default right?
we’ll tell them how hard we fought to make things right
and they’ll be the living elements to prove it all
living in a world much brighter healthier and most of all
they would not call each other out of their names or races
they would be kept swept off their feet by the changes we all created by staying put and creative
because we should be sheltered but never limited to the indoors
they would be proud of what we endured
