Democracy Dear
< >I cry for you democracy dear
will i ever see you, ever
i mourn for freedom that will never be
my people are all over the world
with no place to call home
i cry for you mother land,the land pf my fathers
i long for the milk and honey we used to have
degeneration of my land caused by greed and power
the nation has more weapons than people
that is the evil that tarnishes the image of my country
i cry for you democracy dear
teach me how to be free,how to chose what is best for me
come, heal this cancer of corruption
come along democracy dear
i fear more blood will be shed
i fear my people may never be marry
for how long will my people live like this?
come democracy,help my people
help us defuse this ticking time bomb
i cry for you democracy dear
