There are wonders
When the land's ancestry carved in slavery
For my days to be fruitful and well spent
And the fountain of freedom to be with cause
But overtaken are all by dimwits of power
I have seen wonders
When the con loyalist played with politics
To strip that land of unhatched riches
The results are but the excess poverty
And the masses are left to be witnesses
There is no wonder
That the land yearns for change of foundation
A need for a gigantic miracle
To be placed and practiced not rebellious
Against it's deprived rights yet responsibly
I have seen wonders
When the land produces children in terrorism
Deprived of knowledge and morals
Here and there they call them bandits
You are to blame for there are no limits
There are wonders
In the days to come if not careful
Of the same reasons the forefathers wept
Comes what may you must not wonder
That the land shall not run into plunder
