I have stories to tell,
Of me and my fellas
Around the world.
Do you have a moment to spare?
.
From Heaven to Earth
And to the Netherworld,
We guard every entry and
Exit with full valour.
.
Gods, demons and fairies,
Kings, queens and messengers,
Leaders, followers and everyone
Have knocked and sought permission.
.
We have bore the brunt,
Of every protestor in hunt.
They tried to bring us down,
With stones, sticks and even bombs.
.
Love, hatred have been exchanged,
Through our grills several times.
We have been deeply soaked,
In warm kisses and salty tears.
.
We have quietly witnessed,
History being created around us.
No matter, who the leader is,
We have always protected.
.
A world without us,
Is next to impossible.
So are you ready to
Hear the Gates’ Speak??
