The March of the Forgotten [Poem]

Stand up my son
Stand up proud
Stand up my son
Stand up tall

You will be beaten
You will be abused
You will be forgotten
You will be gone

You mustn't give up hope
You mustn't give in
You mustn't let go
You mustn't forget

Because you will have to march forward
You will have to march toward tomorrow
March towards a bright future
March towards the light at the end of the tunnel

There's a fire in your heart
There's a fire in your eyes
A way forward in your design
A way forward so truly sublime

Hope is our gift
Hope is our curse
You mustn't give it up
You mustn't let it consume

March forward my son
March proud my son
You will be forgotten
But march forward my son

For you will find a new self
A new life
A new love
And a new future for all our kind

March forward my son
March proud
You'll reach our dreams gate
You'll reach it strong.
