The waves of liberty and sadness, they crash upon my beach And clouds that shade and reveal, I try each day to reach Strive on I do with all of you with this tune and the rest We dig our way and have our say Blinded by worst and best The paths of time and place go by, some way or not they teach Confused I learn while much does fade, I do not wish to preach Strive on I do with all of you with this tune and the rest We dig our way and have our say Blinded by worst and best We push divided our point of view, once more unto the breach This gift and curse of language now, hear or ignore the speech Strive on I do with all of you with this tune and the rest I still believe and hope again We’ll overcome this test
