let us go
give us the freedom that was promised,
the ability to be who we are and say what we feel
let us travel the world in search of our dreams
and delve deep into its secrets
let us grow, unfettered by the restraints of our ages
and the wishes of others
from what we are to who we can be
A chance, that's all we want.
A chance to become somebody
let us live, let us breathe.
let us go
