We,
Who were born in diversity
Struggling with profuse adversities
And so, aims to live in an abundant citiesWe,
Behind the problems we see
Was a hope out of solidarity
To this dry air and whole treeWe,
Agreed to choose a leader
That we think has a capability
To pursue the path that leads harmonyWe,
With his outstanding,
Out of the world words
Stunned, depth of imaginingThat we,
Would soon achieve the humidity
Of air that empowers the tree
Its wind that sooths difficultyThat we,
The running water of hope
To the roots, it lopes
Even better, development of undergrowthThat we,
The sun reveals its light
A warm touch of the leaves
Ensuring the safety of the fruitsThat we,
This tree grows massive as one can think
And within a single blink
We're far beyond from drowning to sink and falling to brinkBut we,
Blinded by the mask he's wearing
A smile of clown, we believing
Under it, a hungry monster cravingHe,
Craving for the fruits
Waited until it develops
Sweet, abundant, and then coopHe,
Don't care for the leaves
Who made the things he reaves
A swift air of thievesBut we,
Didn't realize until
The change of air gusting still
Chaining the tree with a chain of sealBut we,
Late to observe
The night enveloped unconserve
The sun never shone, leaves still serveWe,
Midribs covered with tapes
Words begging to escape
Eyes of fear, be gapeWe,
Venules tied in a rope
So we can't do anything but hope
In these obstacle we would copeWe,
Praying for the only one empowering the tree
The water of hope, sprinkling with glee
The only hope we seeHe,
Might change the sun of enlightenment
And the air of commitment
But the water, he can't break into sedimentsHe,
Don't know where it came from
Even if he trace the source, he can't find some
Because it is inside our hearts, the water comeWe,
Know that even when everything went wrong
We know there'll be something who sings a song
To encourage our hearts, to survive this longWe,
Waiting for the light
And when it burns
It will shine brightAnd soon we,
The apex will be keen
A dagger fighting for rights
But now, we are cowards to fight.
