Billy

   I know little Billy from the small time town
   Ma and Pa meant well but they just weren't around
   But he would learn what little they had taught
   They told him, Heaven is hard but hell is not
   

   He remembers Papa's words before he died
   He said, word hard son, you must change the tide
   Before our people have liberation, you can never rest
   On your shoulders, lies our future boy, so do your best
   Do more than your best
   

   Never forgot the burden of his father's words
   He lost his own life and lived the world's
   No one told Billy theres somethings one man just can't do
   Takes time to forgive and equality to take more before it's through
   Just takes time
   

   But still Billy went down to the big time town
   Hoping to find some justice there,
   But God how it all seems cynical through the eyes of despair
   He no longer saw in color, he only saw black and white
   There were never people behind thses faces
   Until he realized one man can't win
   Can't win this fight
   

   So Billy went back to small time town
   He got a life and he settled down
   He teaches children who never really thought
   He told them, Heaven is hard and Hell is
   Heaven is hard and hell is
   Hell is not worth fighting for.
