Hoped and Dreamed

We dreamed, when we were kids,

Of a love, Of a life

We hoped, that when we grew,

We'd have a fair chance

At success, At life

We dreamed, when we were teenagers,

Of truths, that were concealed

We hoped, that when we grew,

We'd have a fair chance,

At integrity, at truth

We tried, when we were in between,

To have a fair life, a truthful one

We hoped, that someday

We'd be better, we'd be stronger

We dreamed, as adolescents

Of world, we could believe in

We hoped that if we worked,

We'd have a fair chance,

In a world that was ours

We tried, when we were so lost,

To have a compass, a moral one

We hoped, that someday 

Our world'd be lively not murderous

We dreamed, when were sorrowful,

Indignant at the world,

Of a humane place for us to grow,

For us to learn in

We hoped, when we couldn't act,

Of a power, of a protest

To help us, make it possible,

For us to live, a better life

We tried, when we had hopes,

To achieve them, for all the world

We hoped, that someday

Our world'd be clean, and safe

We hoped, we dreamed

As kids, and as future leaders

We know, our mission, 

Is impossible, unbelievable

We'll try to make it better,

Piece by piece, In a hopeless world,

We'll try not to dream,

But to work for a chance at life

We know, that our dreams

May never, be a reality

We believe, that we're capable

Of being a spark, inspiring a movement

Giving us all, a chance at life
