Uncertain Future

[Verse] Small lake by the high-rise Future unclear in your eyes Will you survive this concrete rise Or fade away like sunset skies [Verse 2] Gentle ripples quiet and still Made by nature’s gentle will Can you endure the steel and fill Or will progress bring a chill [Chorus] Small lake please stay Don't let the world take you away In my heart you’ll always sway Forever and a day [Verse 3] Buildings grow but you remain In the shadows yet so plain Hold on tight through urban rain Don't let them turn you to a drain [Bridge] Where do you go if you fade A memory in the urban parade Let waters flow don’t be betrayed Mother Nature should be swayed [Verse 4] For every tower painted gray There should be a place to play A little lake where dreams can stay In the midst of city’s fray
