From Age To Age

A child in my father's home years of stolen hope wandering in my own dreams tossing and turning setting my past ablaze Taught pretense, a discipline Smile from ear to ear Respect elders with fear Power of death have they Smart, yet foolish i grew. Dare to speak your mind Arrogant in their sight Trash your dreams for theirs Paint your heart with theirs Live their life in yours Need they lenses for clear vision? "how it's been,will always be" The enemy of the dreams to be. Change of mindset starts within Roots so grounded in the dream Disowned for dreams that left no sleep. Paved a way for all to chase their own. Like Gandhi, we all have our dreams' The difference is the will to Sacrifice Our Comforts for the One we Love.
