I wanted to live the life of a prince
Because I thought saints were born saints
So indeed we didn't stand a chance
Insalubrious offshoots of nature
With heart and mind of our own
All the daughters, all the sons
Taking centuries to unearth the creature
Heralding a stage
Where consciousness is higher
Taken through a costly process
Of success and failure
I thought saints were born saints
I looked in the dirt
And found wisdom is learnt
Through a costly process
Through a costly process
Of success and failure
I thought saints were born saints
I looked in the dirt
And found wisdom is learnt
Wisdom is learnt
Taking away costly process
Of success and failure
Oh, wisdom is learnt
Oh, wisdom is learnt
Oh, wisdom is learnt
