For the worlds lack of bitter truth,
Don't you dare blame the youth,
For we may rise and we may fall,
But in the end we'll be standing tall.
We are the future, forever young,
We are a song, forever unsung,
Behind the darkness, we are the light,
Soaring high, we're stringless kites.
We will be stupid, forever this dumb,
Always mistaken for being this young,
But mind your mouth that utters those words,
For our innocence was killed by your swords.
Now let's stand up for some time,
Look at a world full of crimes,
The lies, the censorship, of those who rule,
Shows us how the world can be so cruel.
This goes on and there's no truth,
No truth in blaming on the youth,
For, all the times we decide to fall,
It takes to be brave to stand back tall.
So let the wind blow midst the night,
We will fight with all our might,
Knowing what's wrong we'll do what's right,
For - behind the darkness, we are the light.
-Aneesha
