We dig deeper and deeper
we unearth the treasures
it buries the mighty
scrolls of sages and seers
we dig deeper and deeper
we untidy and rummage
the storehouse of knowledge
and we see the face of wisdom
the artistic beauty in ourselves
the sharpness of our minds
and we stand taller and taller
we become masters of our destiny.
We stand taller and taller
we are first among equals
our voices are counted
and measured heavily
we refused to be the mule
whose back saddle our deprivation
and the mouthpiece
that sing the praises of buffoons
we refused to wear
as a badge of honor
a legacy of poverty
handed down to us
from one generation to the next
we refused to live as beggars
and we stand taller and taller
we become masters of our destiny.
We wear the cloak of decency
and drink the milk of honesty
and we speak the truth
we stand taller and taller
we become masters of our destiny.
Rene
