I failed to see your hidden hue, But now I am awake and new. The sleepless nights are in the past, My quiet strength is found at last. I lock the door and block your name, I will not play your cruel game. You have no place within my mind, Your bitter shadows stay behind. No grudges live, no tears are shed, I walk away; the past is dead.
The world divides us with borders of stone, But beneath the surface, we are not alone. Listen close to the truth that remains, As we question the walls and challenge the chains: While others wait outside the gate, Can justice wear a single face? Does the same breath that fills one life, Not fill each child in every place? No hand that shaped the stars above, Would measure worth by race or land. The light that rises with each dawn, Falls gently on each outstretched hand. Until no voice is cast aside, The question lives: who stands outside? Break down the walls and smash the steel, So, every soul can freedom feel.
