What We Are Capable Of
Standing there where we all were once before
We look back at our moms and dads walked out the door
Growing up didn't seem to be so bad at the time
But then you wake up and whole world's crying
You think back to when it seemed so right
Now everyday you're just waiting for the night light
We point at someone else to blame
But we're all playing the same game
Growing up now didn't seem so good
Until you look at the things you could
Put them in the past
Save it till last
Now is the time when we all should shine
Show them what we are and what is mine
Cause this land and these people are born to fight
We are in it for love and we'll give it all our might
When the day is done
It may not be all fun
When you look forward and see you kids
You can stand tall as you told them you never hid
Backing down wasn't an option to you
As it came down to the chosen few
Look now what I have made
Land where no one else's attention had paid
Now our land is free and it all started in May
Because you were one of the few that left on that day
