WHAT IS THE GOING.


What is the going? When we throw away our culture: And fix in a culture unknown to our land? What is the point, In fighting for both freedom and justice? When in actual sense, we give up on ourselves to be devoured! Nothing but pain When our nation bleeds! We were once a people Of justice and peace. And that is what we need to stick to, Abiding with our traditions Because that is what defines our whole being.
