There are layers that teach us love
But barriers to freedom, manna from above
Let us find joy in finding truth
Where lines form that let freedom soothe…
Let us search, together again
Let teams form, freedom rain
Even bondage fails to find justice here
Motionless skies silently hear…
The cries that time bestows on life
With freedom now, the silent strife
Even passion fails to find justice
Let freedom bring us a new peace…
One day, true freedom will be ours
As we count time, the silent hours…
