Old photograph on the wall  Making the ast come alive  You've got this truth I can tell  From your iron gaze  From your cold stare  It's taking me back    Who's clothes are you wearing  I can see they're from the mission world  Why aren't you smiling  Did you know I'd be staring back  Right into your eyes    You're with me every step I take  You're like the roots in the ground  Passing love to our family  You're the knowledge  Youre the strength  That I've found    Every morning I wake up  There's a reminder on the wall  White clothes, black skin  Cold pose eyes straight ahead  You're longing for another day  That's where it begins    You're with me every step I take  You're like the roots in the ground  Passing love to our family  You're the knowledge  Youre the strength  That I've found    You're with me every step I take  You're like the roots in the ground  Passing love to our family  You're the knowledge  Your the strength of the youth    You're the old, you're the new  You're the past, you're the present  You're my brother, you're my sister  You're the future
