On the precipice we perch, huddled in hope.
Behind us, prosperity is strewn amid despair.
Fortunes once flaunted, now lamented.
Lives once promising, now lost.
Yet, we have hope...
Our future holds turbulence and challenge.
Uncertainty paints the skies of tomorrow.
Yet, we have hope...
Upon one man's shoulders rests this nation's hope.
A burden so large and impossible.
Yet, we have hope...
Decades ago a great man had a dream.
Today, that dream is alive and this man humbly accepts its challenge.
Yes! We have hope...
