Three steps forward, two steps back we go
You try and push harder, they push right back, I know
The time moves fast and change moves painfully slow
It's hard to see the shift when you're so close
Brick by brick, we are building
You won't see for the longest time
We're building a new life
You plant a seed and wait for it to grow
They hate it now but they're too scared to know
That their children's children will sit underneath it's shade
And your children's children will bask in the love you made
(x3)
Brick by brick, we are building
You won't see for the longest time
We're building a new life
It won't show for the longest time
