Why is there no candy
in the boys hand
why is everyone afraid
to put a confident step on the land
the sand's escaping out of the fingers
the haunting fear still lingers
though they are leaving,
this sudden change of heart or
rather this sudden change of power
gives us more reasons to fear
the iron carts and iron birds are all gone
but now among the world we are none
we want to rise and build a better tomorrow
but in a second
how can we forget years of sorrow
i dont know if this is an agreement between the white skin and flat nose
or balance of power as the people call
i simply do not know
but the seed of independence
that they have sown
gives us zeal,smile,excitement
and hope to grow
and rise above all
and touch the sky
but there is only one thing we should know
humanity is growing with others
and with you let others grow
