Child be whatever you want to be
don't become a lost child like me.
find yourself a fresh new stream
a different sky to draw your dream
walk not the way I strode
set out on a new road
one that's still green
not stained with my sin
retrace not my history
be enslaved not in ancestry
bonded not of our war and greed
our stonewalls of caste and creed
walk not the way we trailed
we missed goals we failed
then lost our way in selfish needs
our hopes buried in overgrown weeds.
Child be whatever you want to be
don't become a lost child like me.
