I'm looking over the skyline of the city
How loud, quiet nights in the mist of crime
How next door to happiness lives sorrow
And signals of solution in the sky
..
A city of justice, a city of love
A city of peace, for everyone of us
We all need it, can't live without it
Gotham City, oh, yeah
...
How sleeping awake because of fear (ohh, yeah)
How children are drowning in their tears
How we need a place where we can go
A land where everyone will have a hero (even me)
...
A city of justice, a city of love
A city of peace, for everyone of us
Cause we all need it, can't live without it
Gotham City, oh, yeah
...
A city of justice, a city of love
A city of peace, for everyone of us
Cause we all need it, can't live without it
Gotham City, oh, yeah
...
Yet in the middle of stormy weather
We won't stumble and we won't fall
I know a place that offers shelter
...
A city of justice, a city of love
A city of peace, for everyone of us
We all need it, can't live without it
Gotham City, oh, yeah
...
A city of justice, a city of love
A city of peace, for everyone of us
We all need it, can't live without it
Gotham City, oh, yeah
...
A city of justice, a city of love
A city of peace, for everyone of us
We all need it, can't live without it
Gotham City, oh, yeah
...
A Gotham City
(Everybody needs Gotham City)
Gotham City
(Don't you want one, oh yeah)
Come on, come on, Gotham City
(Everybody needs Gotham City)
A Gotham City
(Don't you want one, oh yeah)
[Children sing]

A Gotham City

I don't think I can ever forget this song in a hurry, in a minute I got to know of this prompt the next thing was the song. Then I never cared about it if not for the Batman theme it revolves around. Took me time to actually see the indepth meaning that lies in the song and the kind of gathering that always makes the song to be played. Trust me, you can't hear this type of a song in a club house or a dance hall party. That says a lot about what message it's trying to pass around.

It tells of a world separate from another world, a world where it is cool in here and bad out there, it reflect upon two crashing world. How in one city lies peace and harmony and in another chaos and cries.

It makes me starts to think if that is how some people's lives are, a life of peace and tranquillity in a world of chaos, trust me, some people are attaining a mind blowing serene inner peace and chaotic as this world is, either through spiritual enlightenment , devotion, meditation or whatsoever, you can clearly see in how they commune with other that there is this inner peace within them.
