Imagine we as communities
Came together to plant trees,
And grow plants in the inner cities
Imagine if we installed inspiring statues,
Put up aspirational videos on screens
That encouraged everyone to work together,
To beautify their neighbourhoods
So that they look good,
Which in turn would help people feel good
That would raise up hopes and spirits,
Encouraging people to mix and unite
To work on something that feels so right,
Endorsing a future beautiful and bright
Now wouldn’t that be a wonderful sight,
It could spread so much love and light
And bring our environment back to life,
In places now that are just cold concrete landscapes
From which it can feel there’s no escape,
We could let through vibrant colours
The sun back into everyone’s life.
