The Children See Us
Dearest children: Save yourselves.
You're governed out of freedom.
Save yourself from being all
and swear to us your sedum.
Have no faith to carry us
away from where we've come.
Open up and share with us
what little's to your sum.
Forgive us all the things we've done.
We're beggars without cause.
Punish us for all our kind:
and making of our laws.
Pray we make some better choices.
Believe us if you can.
Remember all that we've come from
and chalk it up to man.
