Little Yellow Roses

The wind in my hair and the sun in my eyes
This is the life that I have chose
I must keep running until I fold
I can't live with the lies that
Some people have told

Send my mother a lock of my hair
Send my father the ribbons he gave me
Tell them I hate it to say "Fare thee well"
But I can't live with lies
That some people tell

Why can't the world be
Like little yellow roses?
Lies they don't know, truth only they grow

I've always believed all men are equal
Whatever color, religion or land
I can't stand still and watch it destroyed
So, I'll keep running 'til
It's forever banned

Send my mother a lock of my hair
Send my father the ribbons he gave me
Tell them I hate it to say "Fare thee well"
But I can't live with lies some people tell

Oh, why can't the world be
Like little yellow roses?
Lies they don't know, truth only they grow
