neglected children with parents so far away…
tolerated mistakes pass the days…
hidden sufferings hang in the rope…
sometimes nothing to eat
but most of the time there's a party,
to hear the beat…
now the house in on fire
the house is on fire…
listen to the cry, see how the baby grows…
the milk is not for free…
empty pockets, can’t you see!?
but still asking for more…
the water dried up…
another twenty years to go, my child…
but til then what can we do?
just pray…
just pray…
i hope the rain washes away the coal…
when will the fire catch their eyes?
