Your Body, your home

Your body is your home

When they call you monkey and tell you to go back to your trees

You feel like humankind didn’t belong to their countries

He said, an eye for an eye will make the whole world blind

But before this, they must get enough fear to stop crossing the line

As tears comes to your eyes because they are too many to hit

I welcome your stir and remember to be high above the hate

There is no place to feel entirely son of this earth

Through this life, you’ll be living inside it until your death

So your Body remains your present until you let them cry over it

So respect the sole gift you cannot buy from ones like a meat

From now, no more need to get trouble in the name of wealth

Deeds as you did to Become and stop wasting your life

Awareness is your Way of the Cross for your Freedom

At this moment start living in its senses so you’ll both rest in Innocence

Your body is your own

As One

My eyes are closing

I still can see my People suffering

As they deny our legitimacy as human presence

We, sons of God. We’re fighting for Conscience.

Some of us come over and shine

They pave the way and cross the line

Like small stones on the mile to keep the hope alive

Showing us what we can accomplish when we strive

Then comes the Call…Through Truth and Love, Wisdom and Faith

Inviting the People to walk and struggle together

The road back to our living style, Culture and feeling stronger

Working the World to dominate in our own Kingdom

For the pride more than the simple act of freedom

Rising our fist as the real flag of unity of the whole community

We settle a new era of peace in our Soul and Mind for dignity

Where our uniform will be a sign of respect and honour

My eyes are closing for the last time, on my inner mirror

But I know that my People will rise again…

As One
