Yes, we are our fathers&#039; sons and daughters<br /> But we are not their choices<br /> For despite their absences we are still here<br /> Still alive, still breathing<br /> With the power to change this world<br /> One little boy and girl at a time<br /> KNOCK, KNOCK.<br /> Who&#039;s there?<br /> WE ARE.
