Don'T Cry
PLEASE CHILD DON'T CRY,
PLEASE CHILD DON'T CRY WHEN WE FAIL TO TRY,
PLEASE CHILD I KNOW NOT OF TOMORROW,
BUT WALK WITH ME,
WALK WITH ME AND LET MAKE THIS TALK A REALITY.
A VISION SEEN BY THE HEART,
AND A MISSION WON BY THE MIND,
YOURS TEARS YOUR FEARS WHEN WE CRAWL,
DESPISE NO ONE AND TRUST NO ONE,
I MIGHT GET TIRED ON THE WAY,
BELIEVE IN YOURSELF AND MAKE A MOVE,
EVEN AS TIME GOES ON DON'T GET INTO CRIME,
DON'T LOOK BACK FLOW LIKE A RIVER,
AT THE END YOU WILL SHINE LIKE A SILVER.
IN MY OWN MOTHERLAND PEOPLE CRY TEARS OF HUNGER,
AS THEIR TONGUE FAILS TO TASTE AND RETIRE TO GRAVES,
I FED YOU ON BREST MILK TO MAKE YOU SEE THE SUNSET,
NOW I WILL BE GONE I HOPE MY WORDS WILL LEAD YOU,
CHILD PLEASE DON'T CRY
