The rain falls, and still we go on
The fire burns and we use the ashes
To fertilize our gardens
We mix them with mud
To make the bricks that build our homes
Where is your home, child?
Where do you live?
Can you see or does the fear cloud your eyes
Make the whole world black
Where is your home, child?
Where do you live?
Can you build it strong or do you make
Castles in the sand?
Build your home child, of mud and ashes
But leave a little hole to let in the rain
Then when the sun shines, child
Ooo when the clouds clear
Bright and shining color will fill your home
And when the sun shines
Don't forget the rain
It takes both to make us whole
Help us grow
