[Verse 1]
Every age has its turn
Every branch of the tree has to learn
Learn to grow, find its way
Make the best of this short-lived stay
[Verse 2]
Take this seed, take this spade
Take this dream of a better day
Take your time, build a home
Build a place where we all can belong
[Verse 3]
Some things change, some remain
Some will pass us unnoticed by
What to focus on, to improve upon
In the face of our ancient drives
[Verse 4]
Feels so clear, feels so obvious
To each one on their own
But we are here together
Reaping what time and what we have sown
[Verse 5]
We don't choose where we're born
We don't choose in what pocket or form
But we can learn to know
Ourselves on this globe in the void
[Verse 6]
Take this mind, take this pen
Take this dream of a better land
Take your time, build a home
Build a place where we all can belong
