A million dollars to give away

If you had a million dollars to give away, who would you give it to?

If I had a million dollars to give away

I’d find children with no where to stay

They can be orphaned and living in squalor

Because they may come from homes where there was no father


I would go through the Department of Children Services and go through the cases

To save as many children I can from incarceration

I’d buy a large home where we can dwell

While the ones with parents are getting help

I would never call it a group home

Because that would make the home seem cold


I’d give all who pass through the doors

A loving place to call home

I’d find out what they want to be

While making their dreams a reality


Because I witnessed my grandmother do these things with nothing

I’d carry her legacy to destroy all shame
