A Time To Think

When the young minds of today 
Will do foolish things everyday 
There'll come a time when this great land 
Will fall into the wrong hands 

Youth, hope of fatherland? Where art thou? 
Did you make path where you'll walk though? 
Better think now before it's too late 
Throw things of vain and shun the hate 

For this country depends on you 
For the old souls don't come anew 
There comes a time when they'll all fade 
And you'll be left to till the glades
