Tear my mind away from the traps that lay within
Hold tight, steadfast and true to the belief that I have purpose
Refuge is not a place of ideology
But a place of triumph from battles fought
Wash these callused hands in the blood of my forefathers
Hold tight to the truth of their sacrifice of yesteryear
Beware, as ancestry too, has places of darkness
For rage and intolerance follow the path of their iniquities
Enlightenment dissuades the beast inside
Constraints, no matter their strength, can break
Take heart and lean into love
For only in this we shall we be victorious and find peace
