I Stand
I STAND
I look into those men eyes
I see nothing to stand for
their excellent lies are awarded
believing in institution
with falling body
I stand and see nothing
I am not impressed
Oh!! truly ambassadors of poverty
Let rise on intruders our delve
We all stand for mission
At times I ask about our past questions
heads arw guilty of the past
Yet I stand and see nothing
Youths are the hope
if oceans can rise
if plants can grow
Yes!! we can
for great change
not like night day owls
Hope I stand.
