Who am I to say I hate it all? Shelter me, the life they'll never know Who am I to shout so loud? Shower me with hope, a fool is all It's my desire, my desire I plead no war Is it important, is it important Our kids know more My desire, my desire I'll quit no more But it's all I know Who am I to say what's really wrong? So consumed with life, I've heard it all Who am I to stand so tall? Am I as blind as those who tried before? It's my desire, my desire I plead no war Is it important, is it important Our kids know more My desire, my desire I'll quit no more And it's all I know They don't want us all to know See their riches overflow
