Dreams to Reality by Gav Bryson ‘22 and Jon Rogers ‘22 I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed We hold these truths to be self-evident that all men are created equal - Martin Luther King, 1963 Living through a world where things never change, In a world where a voice like mine is never heard, screaming and crying for equality but you can't hear me? begging for your attention like an infant but you ignore me And the crazy thing is Martin Luther King's had a dream, that all men could be equal But dreams are dreams for a reason a series of thoughts in a sleepin’ mind But when you wake up…the dream is over… This dream can be your reality if you make equality your religion You hear what i'm saying but it goes in one ear and out the other like a lecture But listen to these words, they will grab YOUR ears We often try to find the right time to speak up When is it convenient I'm tired of hearing that I'm tired of waiting The time for change is now And if you’re not willing to speak up with us Don’t try to be like us All these school values Men for Others The Golden rule Are all said in vain We are not the school we claim to be But through work we can be the school we ought to be And make this dream a reality
