about

This song was written for and dedicated to all people in the world who have been impacted by gun violence. 100% of the proceeds from sales of "Beacon" are being donated to the March For Our Lives Action Fund, the fundraising effort created by the heroic survivors of Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, FL.

lyrics

Blue lights, red lights wash across the park
Smoke fills in the air as the tears begin to fall

We can hear the thunder, we can hear the call
A beacon shining out to everywhere
We can hear the thunder, we can hear the call
As the truth cuts down to our very core

Hands reaching out for a link to safety
A courage builds in the air, the youth will carry us.

We can hear the thunder, we can hear the call
A beacon shining out to everywhere
We can hear the thunder, we can hear the call
As the truth cuts down to our very core

Ah, from the darkest hour comes change
Ah, honesty finds a way

Open up, listen close, to words of power
Settle down, listen up, this time it won’t fade away

Red white and blue lights shine across the land
A courage builds in the air, the youth will carry us

We can hear the thunder, we can hear the call
A beacon shining out to everywhere
We can hear the thunder, we can hear the call
As the truth cuts down to our very core

We can hear the thunder, we can hear the call
A beacon shining out to everywhere
We can hear the thunder, we can hear the call
As the truth cuts down to our very core
