Yes we can!!
Yes we can,
The People have spoken,
And Barack is smokin'.
Do you feel the change in the wind,
can you feel the hope coming from with-in.
Are you more excited than ever before.
It finally feels like we have opened a door.
And we are the one's who made it real.
With the promise of hope and a better Ideal.
It's a historic event to say the least.
Definitely worthy of a giant feast.
Don't get me wrong it's all just begun.
There's a lot of work , with little fun.
Unity and hope is our theme,
As we all dared to reach for this dream.
Our future is brighter and sweeter than before.
I can't wait for the chance to learn so much more.
Don't let anyone tell us that we can't achieve our dreams.
If they don't understand, then they can't know what it means.
Don't forget the lesson's this campaign has taught.
So all of our efforts count, and won't be forgot.
Respect, fairness, and dedication are what we have been shown.
And that there's a chance to have the American dream as our own.
The Audacity of hope was once just a book
But now we all can see what vision it took.
As we raise our hands in celebration of the Promise.
A new era has dawned, the whole future is upon us.
Can we make the change? I say YES WE CAN!
Because finally we have found just the right man!
So let us all celebrate now and rejoice in the news.
What brought us all together and secured our right to choose
Come January 20 th history will be made.
And this feeling of hope I would never trade.
Thank you Obama for showing us how,
The future is upon us, the future is now!
