We have grown and passed
Through all the good and bad
We have seen and even been
The change outside and within
We praise all humans' humane
A ceremony for them, we entertain
But the inhuman acts remain
There's no stop to this revolving chain
And songs of humanity we still sing
But to intolerance is what we cling
Intolerance to religions and race
Intolerance to freedom, we face
A division in the rich-poor grade
Intolerance to differently abled and sexed
Though we want 'Our Descendants' to be at ease
And a better future we hope there is
But for how we want the building to stand
We need a strong foundation plan
Instead what we do is we showcase
Our staggering walks to the path of mess
And make them learn
To walk alike when we are gone
If the world's a house, We're its bricks
At that, What a person within him seeks
Is all that matters,
Guilt or Pride...
For what we shall leave behind!
