Yes We Can

It was a creed written into the founding documents that declared the destiny of a nation, Yes We Can. It was whispered by slaves and abolitionists as they blazed it's trails toward freedom, Yes We Can.... It was sung by Immigrants as they trudged out deadly shores, Pioneers pushed westward against unforgiving moments, Yes We Can. It is the Call for workers Organized, Women who reached for the ballots, a president who chose to move us to a new frontier and King who led us to the mountain top pointing to the promise land, Yes We Can. Yes we can to justice and equality, Yes We Can..., Yes We can to opportunity and prosperity, Yes We Can to opportunity and prosperity, Yes we can Heal this nation, Yes We can prepare this world, Yes we can. Yes We Can. Yes We Can, We know the battle ahead will call. Always remember that no matter what obstacles stand in our way nothing can stand in the way the power of millions of voices calling for change, We Want Change..., We have been told we cannot do this by a force of census, it'll only grow louder and more distant, And asked to paused for a reality check, we've been warned against offering people of this nation false hope. But in this unlikely story of America there is NOTHING false about hope. I want change..., And the hopes of the little girl who goes to Public school in Dillon are the same as the hopes of a little boy who learns in the streets of L.A. - We will remember that there is something happening in America that we are not as divided as our politics suggests. We are one People, We are one Nation, and together we will begin the next GREAT Chapter in the American story, with three words that will ring out from coast to coast, from sea to shining sea YES WE CAN YES WE CAN YES WE CAN... - On YouTube type in the tree words 'YES WE CAN' for the music version of Obama's speech.
