Children Of War

Remember the day I was born

A little baby crying to a sad song

They didn't know to smile or mourn

This world welcomed yet another lost soul

We lost track of the time when we fell so low

I was dying to live, when I was destined to die

I am begging to breathe, while I'm wondering why

A little child like me, was born living a lie

Filled with hope that rains from my eyes when I cry

Left with reality and the pain that it hides

I'm the child of death, I've never known love in this life

A constant battle on a dozen battle fields

The deadliest is hidden at my feet

The heart I'm stomping on fell and it hurts, my defeat

Sometimes I wonder what did I deserve

I preserve my faith, and I pray for a better day

And I say, no matter how much pain I feel

I am ready for more

What is to live

Concealing the meaning of breathing

Leaving is the only way to freedom

My mic sucks so I can't tell you all this in high definition

Listen to my words, not the way that I speak them

If seeing is believing, look at the world we living

I'm not a rapper who am I kidding

I'm a poet, I'm a leader, I'm a speaker

Not some modern rhyme guerilla showing off his sneakers

I have a world to protect

Expect nothing but the best

When I'm rapping about the land far from the west

The east, the mother of us all

So I speak, softly, gently

Bladi, hayati why were these people so cold

Dear love tell me where did you go

I miss you and I want you to know

Without you this world is just a sad story told

Please call

Sincerely

Yours Truly
