We mortgage our present
For a putative future
We sign vakalatnamas
For others
To live our lives
We mark time
Until one day
Tomorrow arrives unannounced
And we find that
The solutions to all our
Present problems
Lie in the past
We mortgage our present
For a putative future
We sign vakalatnamas
For others
To live our lives
We mark time
Until one day
Tomorrow arrives unannounced
And we find that
The solutions to all our
Present problems
Lie in the past
