This life I've traveled for so long
Through its timeless wilderness
And all the people that I've met
All with their thoughts and dreams
One thing I wonder though,
In our uniqueness
Isn't it really so,
So much equalness

I was born parentless
The only one grandmother
No substitute for happiness
I didn't even bother
I never went to my father's grave
Right after he had died
This world had torn us apart
Still I feel I knew him

I know my lifetime passes so fast
And those sweet memories won't ever last
Everyone I see is hiding from the sun
Meanwhile I'm fighting for mine to be won

(Verse starts on 5th time)
Sometimes I have wondered, what life's all about
And I stumble over the line
People's lives are stolen, two ways of living
These times I think I'm losing my mind

I'm not least bitter though
'Cause I have my freedom
And I will teach my children so
They also find freedom
This life meant so much to me
I was so happy
With no special place to be
The universe is my family
