Restraints were hoisted on at such an early age
|
Straps were tightened in the class
|
Scripts by the school sage
|
Putting out the spark
|
Left us in the dark
|
|
Possibilities shut right down
|
The cleaver of the uniform was handed down
|
Treated like a clown
|
|
Where are we going
|
Where are we going
|
What are we doing
|
What are we doing
|
Throwing it away like that
|
What are you doing
|
Throwing is away
|
All that potential
|
All that potential
|
Trickling away like that
|
|
We will refuse to be your clones or
|
Work in someone's scheme
|
Let a person find themselves not be part
|
Of a machine that worships power and wealth
|
We need our sanity
|
A day will come when everyone will have
|
Their due respect
|
Hate will no longer be a twisted form of love
|
|
Where are we going
|
What are we doing
|
Throwing it away like that
|
What are you doing
|
All that potential
|
Trickling away like that
|
|
Tell me where are we going
|
What are we doing
|
Throwing it away like that
|
What are you doing
|
All that potential
|
Trickling away like that
|
|

WHERE ARE WE GOING?
