Old photograph on the wall

Making the ast come alive

You've got this truth I can tell

From your iron gaze

From your cold stare

It's taking me back



Who's clothes are you wearing

I can see they're from the mission world

Why aren't you smiling

Did you know I'd be staring back

Right into your eyes



You're with me every step I take

You're like the roots in the ground

Passing love to our family

You're the knowledge

Youre the strength

That I've found



Every morning I wake up

There's a reminder on the wall

White clothes, black skin

Cold pose eyes straight ahead

You're longing for another day

That's where it begins



You're with me every step I take

You're like the roots in the ground

Passing love to our family

You're the knowledge

Youre the strength

That I've found



You're with me every step I take

You're like the roots in the ground

Passing love to our family

You're the knowledge

Your the strength of the youth



You're the old, you're the new

You're the past, you're the present

You're my brother, you're my sister

You're the future
