Foundation de Ensign

Looking back in retrospect
would you have done it all the same
all the ground you've broken, was it all in vain
your legacy came to an end, cut short before it's time
who will carry on the torch,
that you have left behind
every time i hear your words
i remember why i'm here
foundation that supported you, was crumbling to dust
tall and proud you stood determined, never giving up
hard work and dedication, helped to pave the way
to let you know you're not forgotten,
it's our turn to repay
every time i hear your words
i remember why i'm here
standing up, not giving in
you gave me reason to believe
that just one voice on it's own
could help to make a change
standing up, not giving in
a reason to believe
that just one voice on it's own
had to make a change
