What have we come to..
My country I ask…
Where are we going
And to whom do we belong?
For years we were looted
We thought it would end
At the stroke of mid-night
That far-gone week-end
Here we are again
Has anything changed?
Did we wipe any tears
Redeem any pain?
Did we grow-Did we rise
Do we share the same pride?
Can we call it “our” freedom
If we left most behind?
Let’s build us a nation
With plenty for all
Food, Water, Dignity,
Is that too much to ask?
When did money and power
Replace compassion and pride?
Did we not see us changing?
Or did none of us care?
Now it’s time to rise up
And learn from our past
Cos our destinies tie up
With this country of ours!!
