We were born Out of two worlds colliding Out of the clash Of faith and endeavour But when they came They came to change and conquer Our ancient ways Were impaired and forgotten The earth at our feet Severed and torn We failed to see Where we belong Shorten the distance between us Erase the lines that were drawn long ago Beware of those Traitors that hide among us: They'd sell our souls If it fit their purpose Haunted by this
Idea of perfection We'll curse our skin And deny where we came from When will we Open our arms? Can we break free And overcome? Shorten the distance between us Erase the lines that were drawn long ago When our beliefs have been taken Who will be there to catch us when we fall? Shorten the distance between us Erase the lines that were drawn long ago When our beliefs have been taken Who will be there to catch us when we fall?
