All night I hear the rain
I Wake and still it's falling
Too wet for me but not the doves
that search the ground beneath the feeder
There must be something left
By day we watch the world unspool
Our country, future, freedom
There's so much danger in our land
And all from one benighted man
power absent stature, words without a soul
Others vacant hollow cause unknown
Shorn of bravery kindness heart
lie and preen and call it truth--
If truth subversive be
There are enough of us you know
Who clearly see and won't appease
We are the ones who search the ground for country, future, freedom
Who search the sky, the by-roads, towns and squares
Who protest peacefully
More of us than anyone has counted yet, five million? Ten?
One-hundred? Two? We won't succumb
there's more than something left
It's all there, our country, future, freedom
In our hands, only ours
WE ARE THE PEOPLE
God bless the fight
(the years of the regime)
