cut the umbilical cords


The pockets are empty
What can they say?
Looking at the flash floods
Don't they ever learned?

The fear in their eyes
They can't wait for the change
Somehow they still are afraid
They hold on to the umbilical cords

The decades of indoctrination
The rule of fear and divide
The promotion of a race
It shells the thought of progress

Don't they hear enough?
The cheaters and liars?
The corruptors and con artistes?
Taking the wealth of the nation?

They have the fear
In their eyes we all know
Afraid to jump over the fence
The unknown strips them naked

But we have to wake up
The pockets are going empty
Cut the cord once and for all
Let us glow in our rights
