Why I?



6,000,000
Six million and one
And I'm the one
The rest are dead
Before their time
Before their seed could sprout
In awful ways
I do not care to repeat
Lest other ears
Do hear
And turn the plowshares
Into swords
And worse.

Six million and one
And I'm the
ONE
Why I?
What am I doing here
And all the rest are dead?
Surely there is something to be said
By me alone
Something great
Something to move the world toGreatness
Some message I have to bring.
I
The ONE
from six million and one
I
the one ONE

Why I?
What's special about me?
Why was I different from
Thee and thee and thee
O six million
Why was I different
I
The one
Why
I?
