The inspirational ballad, No Wall Too Tall, by folk singer and social change advocate, Raffi, calls for reform of the financial system. This song and many others are available for free download or streaming at the website of the organization Centre for Child Honouring.
People say it’s hopeless, money rules the world
It rules with an iron hand, and we’re helpless in its hold
People say you’re crazy, you can’t break that wall
It’s too old, too big, too strong, it’s never going to fall
I say – think of the Iron Curtain, remember Berlin,
Remember apartheid, look at the state they’re in
There’s no wall too tall
No wall too tall to fall
No wall, no wall too tall
Money vendors crowd the temple, survival crowds the heart
It seems there’s no other way, you’re doomed before you start
But we know a greater power in the hearts of the young and old
Love for all the children, the compassion in our world
And I say : No wall too tall
No wall too tall to fall
No wall, no wall too tall
sound the call, blow the bugle, walls come a tumblin down
in the face of the power of love, the rules start spinning around
No wall too tall
No wall too tall to fall
No wall, no wall too tall
No wall too tall
No wall too tall to fall
No wall, no wall too tall
