We

We

Verse 1
We are not candy, we are not animals
We're originators of a land
That's been used and abused
We are serious about our liberation
We're disengaging from creations
Which have been designed to harm us
Nothing is more important than truth and independence
The authority of our lives
What we choose to believe in
It's what we worship
It's what we try to manifest regularly
Without it, we're epically hollow
And far from who we should be
Perfecting the skills of listening and thinking
Will determine the path of our journey
And our eternal status

Verse 2
Brain-washing is a practice we engage in
To rid ourselves of the junk
That's been accumulated over the years
The notions of inferiority were accepted and taught
And now are rejected
They are banished from our breath and sounds
From our thoughts and behaviour
If it's not important, then it's not worth trying
Something to ignore, something to forget
And to not be bothered with
We've been carrying the heavy weight of frustration and anger
Our experiences were being tainted
And our senses were compromised

Verse 3
There are consequences to having nothing
To letting anything affect you
To suppressing your natural abilities
What you give is ultimately what you get
So give all that you can to yourself
Be exceedingly generous
There are rules to follow, plans to conceive of
Whatever condition you're in
You'll need confidence for elevation

Chorus
We will be healthy
We will be mighty again
We will express ourselves in productive and profound ways
We will be intelligent
We will be compassionate
We will learn how to be human again
