lyrics

As a people we can’t look back in time,
To a place of pain, of inhumane crime,
Where not only soldiers lost their lives,
But also those not on front lines,

Whether we were beaten in the streets,
Butchered and burned like rotten meat,
Or if our families fell at our feet,
It is time to stop, and the enemy greet,

They say that time has the power to heal,
But for most this pain is still very real,
Like yesterday, ten years ago can feel,
And the fate of our children that pain may seal,

To move forward we can’t look back,
But this new path may be a rougher track,
We must all be willing this risk to take,
If the shackles of war we wish to break,

To forget the death of our fathers is sin,
But this stalemate nobody will win,
And our children should stand to inherit more,
Than the corpse of a country filled with craters of war,

Soon it will be time, for the next generation to stand,
To nurture and protect our beautiful land,
It is on their watch that this pain must end,
And for friends, now enemies, to make amends,

To take the tools that dug trenches and graves,
To build schools and homes with those same spades,
And together the scars of war to erase,
So that our children may have somewhere to play,

And one day to have something of their own,
To be proud to announce it, their home,
Content in the knowledge that their parents - us,
Had stood up and said, “Enough is enough.”
