Fatigue has come upon me
Why are my people still persecuted
Five hundred years
When will it be over
Savages we were considered
Uncivilized to others
Why,....when all we wanted was peace
You took our land
It appeared you wanted our souls
Forbidden to speak our language
Banned our praised to God
None the less sing and dance
Why,....when all we wanted was peace
Our children were put for adoption
Taken to far away schools
Our leaders were placed in prison
Our women brutally raped
Exterminated our warriors
Why,....when all we wanted was peace
We have a reason for hatred
The right to fight
To have anger in our hearts
Dispise all foreigners
But why,....Why, when all we want is peace

brudderfromanuddermudder, I do like how you write. The reason why we have stayed friends for all these years is because our hearts feel the same things. And we both had very close brushes with death.
It refocuses one's values, doesn't it?
