  • Every age has its turn
    Every branch of the tree has to learn
    Learn to grow, find its way,
    Make the best of this short-lived stay

    Take this seed, take this spade
    Take this dream of a better day
    Take your time, build a home
    Build a place where we all can belong

    Some things change, some remain
    Some will pass us unnoticed by
    What to focus on, to improve upon
    In the face of our ancient tribes

    Feels so clear, feels so obvious
    To each one on their own
    But we are here, together
    Reaping what time and what we have sown

    We don't choose where we're born
    We don't choose in what pocket or form
    But we can learn to know
    Ourselves on this globe in the void

    Take this mind, take this pen
    Take this dream of a better land
    Take your time, build a home
    Build a place where we all... can belong Writer/s: JOSE GONZALEZ
