The People's Stand : United We Prevail
In many constituencies, where the winds of change do blow,
Elections near, with battles fierce and bold,
And candidates of selfish aims do make their stand,
With wealth and strength, to control this land.
Yet we recall that wisdom doth abound,
In the hearts and minds of those that live around,
And though they may believe they can buy our vote,
We know that truth shall triumph and they'll note.
So let us stand as one, and make our voice,
A symbol of the strength we all rejoice,
For these elections are not just for the few,
But for the well-being of our communities.
And on that day, when ballots are cast,
We'll show that power lies not in wealth amassed.
And through our unity and steadfast might,
We'll show that we are not a people to be trifled with,
For our voice and choice, they do hold the key,
To a future bright and free from tyranny.
And thus we'll choose a leader with a heart,
One that values truth, and does his part,
To make our lives better, day by day,
And lead us on a path that's bright and gay.
So let us stand together, hand in hand,
And show the world, this is our stand,
For the power of the people is a force to be reckoned with,
And our voices shall be heard, from dawn till dusk.
With wisdom, truth, and strength, we shall prevail,
And a better future, we shall soon unveil.
