Mommy and Daddy sitting in the tree,
I lay inside my mother's womb,
Can't anybody hear my cry,
You want to kill me,
It's murder!
I'm the problem they can't face,
My mother says, she wants me dead,
All I want is a chance to live,
I cry out for love,
The minds of these people are so thick,
8/5/91
wondering if I'll ever be.
Am I going to be a man
or a corpse to be canned.
listening to the words of doom.
"Hush little baby, don't you cry,
Mom and Dad want you to die."
I want to live and not to die.
I don't want you to take my life,
killing me with the poisonous knife.
but can't you see?
Don't take it any further!
You're killing me,
in the first degree!
ending my life, ending my race.
No love at all to give or find,
they have such a selfish mind.
the doctor doing what she has said.
Burning of my skin, is all I see,
the doctor killing me in the first degree.
but pain and hatred is all you give.
Am I the one that they despise,
please don't murder me, open your eyes.
I cry out for life.
The doctor with the glove
and the poisonous knife.
Tearing my body apart
inside my mother's womb.
No life or love to start,
only me in a medical tomb!
my life's in the hands of a lunatic.
You silence my lips,
you abolish my voice.
I'm the victim without a choice.
Taking my life to its end,
straight to death I am condemned.
