A great darkness befalls our hearts
our hearts and minds in fact
a never-ending darkness within
because we lack confidence
confidence and will to fight
fight for what we feel is right
fight to end cruelty and utter mistreatment
let that light in you burst the barrier
the barrier that keeps your confidence at Bay
confide in others
and fight for your rights
your dear human rights

your rights to be free
free from mistreatment and pain
pain from the ones that hurt you most
the civil and political leaders
strong will you must have
and a good vision you must achieve
a vision of a cruelty free nation
a nation of freedom from pain
