Yes We Can

That's why tonight belongs to you 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 a trail Toward freedom through the darkest of nights. Yes we can. It was sung by immigrants as they struck out from distant shores and Pioneers who pushed westward against an unforgiving wilderness. Yes we can. It was the call of workers who organized; women who reached for the Ballot; a President who chose the moon as our new frontier; and a King who took us to the mountaintop and pointed the way to the Promised Land. Yes we can to justice and equality. Yes we can Yes we can to opportunity and Prosperity. Yes we can heal this nation. Yes we can repair this World. Yes we can Yes we can Yes we can
