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
