You Cannot Quell Our Spirit

From rooftops, you may yell or shrill Finding faults and accusing us, still Our spirit you can never kill You may shout at us or scream Defeat and despair our lot may seem But you cannot destroy our dreams. You may scheme against us or plot Bring forth sorrow and curse our lot But all your efforts will come to naught. You may attack us with your lies Make us dissolve into tears and sighs But you can’t stop us reaching the skies. You may inflict pain upon our hearts Aim at us your poison darts We’re destined to win, from the start. Seeds of division you may sow Turn a friend into a foe But you cannot conquer us, you know. You may try to dim our glow Deal us a really mighty blow But you cannot make us stoop so low. You may seek an opportunity To break our bonds of unity But our strength will grow to infinity. Vicious tales you may tell Make our lives a living hell But know this: our spirits you cannot quell.
