Some want to see

Those who’ve gone above

Friends that they lost

People they love

I’d rather meet

Freedom than roam

To lead me through the fog

Couldn’t ask for more

Children

Take a living

Gotta keep up

You got to give a little, get a little

And see it

Like future people

Some things could be

Seen from above

Thread of design

Don’t trip me up

Children

Take a living

Gotta keep up

You got to give a little, get a little

And see it

Like future people

Listen to teachers

Imagine a sound

Listen loud

And then they’ll reach the top
