What happened to those
dreams?
Of little kids with goals so
high, straight as a light beam.
Nothing could waver it, no
obstacles or person could
change it.
Then...it all disintegrated.
To the ashes they went.
We turned into beasts, into
mindless molds.
No soul.
No heart.
Nothing but a sharp dart to
are plans for life.
and pain.
Are dreams have fled with
the wind.
To the far reaches of the
world.
We seek to be what we are
not.
We change the balance of
everything we know.
What have we become...
What happened to the sweet
talk of heroes and astronauts,
of dancers and more?
Were are the young ones,
already prepared for life!
Life full of love, taking the
means "live life to it's
fullest" to heart.
Were did it go?
And what did it leave
behind?
Destruction in a fire's blaze.
But, little embers, fighting
for the dreams of yesterday,
for now and later, still live on.
We, the next generation will
fight.
Is in not but are job?
To be what we want!
To break the molds, and
build anew?
Is it?
Then tell me why, I feel
deprived, of what i want to
do?
We are told to be smart, go
to school and become
lawyers.
We are told we are nothing
but mud.
We are told many things.
Many molds to go to.
Break a mold, go and live,
remember when you were
just a little kid.
What was you dream?
To sit by and do what others
have done before!?
Or to be yourself and more?
What you want to be.
I fight, for my generation and
the next.
Fight with me.
Till the embers, create a new
flame.
