Promised land

One has promised us so much The destination seemed so clear for so long But the truth was much more A deceptive story

Was the sight also so often clouded It obstructed our clear view One has also so often lied to you And betrayed your dream

Have you also enough of it Don't wait for what comes Let us now look ahead And create our own world

Take me firmly in your hand Lead me into the promised land Show me your beautiful world That lights the day in me Take me firmly in your hand

I don't want to just watch any longer And stand at the edge of the path I don't trust the pretty words anymore That I heard in so many places

We will achieve wishes We will shape dreams We yearn for the small victories We no longer want to lie on the ground

On the streets and in the lanes We see the crowds Searching for true happiness Striving for a small piece
