Protest

We unfurl
Day by day
From our birth
Learn to touch
Want to smile
And we laugh
So we grow
World expands
See the sky
Why what how
Start to ask
And we trust
Won’t you shout out loud with me
Why is that, what’s it do
How do you know it’s true
We feel pain
Someone hurts
It’s unfair
We see life
Differently
No more trust
So won’t you scream out loud with me
Why is this world unfair
Why are there rich and poor
Why are some crushed when I am free
We want change
We want light
Equality
So just please shout out loud with me
Let’s revolutionise how it works
Let us all be free
No more poverty
So come and scream with me
Give us equality
We bring peace
