King, where are your people now ?  
Chained and pacified.  
Tried in vain to show them how.  
And for that you died.  
  
You had a dream of a promised land.  
People of all nations walking hand in hand  
But they're not ready to accept  
That dream situation, yet.  

King, where are your people now ?  
Chained and pacified.  
Tried invain to show them how.  
And for that you died.
