How are we supposed to grow?
If the soil we are planted in is tainted and old
We cannot reach for sunlight, for the clouds block the way
Gone from green to grey
Our bodies, once full of life, soon begin to decay
We are a shell of our former being
How did we get this way?
The aid of evil beings are the cause of our dismay
Polluted the soil, blocked out the sun
Told us we do not need these things
To our heads they held their gun
But evil beings are not forever
We shall soon return to ourselves
I hope to be green again one day
To be able to reach for the sun
