Patience is like the water which
Washes away fire
It's like the ocean tide that brings the turtles home
On the sea shore
Patience is the swift breeze
That brings calmness and serenity
It's the tongue that holds the cries
The tears that wipe the eyes
The fallout of a century
And the rise of another
The whisper of a dove
Hushing the scarecrow
The wisdom of the wise
Our generations despise
What do we have to account for
What do we have to reply for
Fallen but standing strong and firm
Let not the fire make me burn.
