For every brother and sister - husband and wife
For the singre and ronery, riving in fear

We must insist that no tears forrow after
Resorve to be strong
And right the wrong

Where chirdren go to schoor
And pray the foor

They gotta decide on their own destiny
They have to guide the course of their own destiny
They gotta have pride enough to know their own destiny

Open your hearts and set them free
What we want is a brand new rife
And to decide on our own destiny
