Oh the boy had a dream, |
|
He once had a mind of his own, |
|
So they took it away, |
|
And quickly the damage is done. |
|
Yes the heart disappears, |
|
And gives way to despair, |
|
They've got schemes and ideas, |
|
But no loving and care. |
|
And it needs that much more, needs it much more. |
|
Well so much for your schemes, |
|
So much for the things that you say, |
|
While you're out chasing votes, |
|
He's out chasing dragons all day. |
|
So another child dies, |
|
One more baby in black, |
|
and the mother she cries, |
|
As she's starting to crack, |
|
And she can't take much more, no she can't take much more. |
|
How many more times, must they shatter our trust, |
|
Do we sit in silence,or stand up and scream in disgust. |
|
I still have a dream, |
|
I still have a mind of my own, |
|
They won't take it away, |
|
Because I see the damages they've done. |
|
I see one more boy dies, |
|
One more baby in black, |
|
hear a mother who cries, |
|
But that don't bring him back. |
|
How many times must we stand for their lies, |
|
As the crocodile tears fill their eyes, |
|
The suffering and hardship is not going to fall, |
|
Try to call them again, |
|
Because I can't take much more, |
|
It's worth fighting for, |
|
And we need love much more... |
