The Prodigal Child - Deficiency

In the beginning there was the sky and the earth each on its own side

A distinct evolution kept them away from each other for a long time

The sky used to know

It used to know how, where, when, who, to know why

The earth used to do

It used to do life and death, to do weakness and strength

The apartheid time finally ends

The sky and the earth will join forces

The fruit of their womb will mark the start a new era — a new crisis

The sky used to know

It used to know how, where, when, who, to know why

The earth used to do

It used to do life and death, to do weakness and strength

The cherished child has to labour

Whatever mother wants, he has to answer to father

Torn between sky and earth

He has to fly or to creep

Choosing will have consequences…

It is a new era

The cherished child has to labour

Whatever mother wants, he has to answer to father

Awakening the anger of the sky

Dishonoring plans of the earth

Making a mother unsatisfied

Fearing a father’s harshness

Early or late, a choice will be done

Could the offspring of heights and depths

Succeed in making the right one?

It’s the story of a new era
