I have heard the cries of many screaming children,
Sometimes I get lost,
I've been touched by many burning victims,
I choke in the smoke,

I've been suffocated,
Sometimes I hold my breath,
I've been stoned by judgmental hypocrites,
Sometimes they break my bones,

I have worked with the miserably poor,
Sometimes I play too,
I've have learned from mistakes of bitter old men,
Sometimes I reach out beyond them,

I've been suffocated
I can't hold my breath
I've been stoned by judgmental hypocrites
Sometimes they break my, Break my bones

I've been reaching out beyond them
I've been robbed

I've been suffocated
Sometimes I hold my breath
I've been stoned by judgmental hypocrites
Sometimes they break my bones

Why can't help them,
As my father helped me?
Why can't I help myself?
Why can't we help ourselves?
