Hatred
Alone desolate in the corner of the room
A child weeps, a child screams
A lonely soul with no place to go
A death-ridden child with no dreams
Too many days we see this pain
Too many fears too little hope
Totally forgotten, no love at all
Parents more worried about their dope
I seen a baby with dirt on her face
A bottle of something tight in hand
A big brother clothes all torn
Digging around in a trash can
Where did the love go?
Where did it go wrong?
Why is there so many?
Why is hatred so strong?
I take for granted everything in my life
I just don’t realize I have it made
I think life it tough
I’m sitting in the shade
I have a house, food in my belly
A mother who loves me
A brother so close
All the pain in the world I do not see
I vow on this day and the rest of my life
To try to remember those in pain
Those lost babies, screaming for help
Shivering coldly in the pouring down rain
Lord, please help them
Carry them through
Show them the love
Show them what’s true
