They hate us



I wonder why they hate us
sometimes I wonder why you made us
all I hear is from this haters
plus I know they want to slave us
they strong us if they want too

But I look around the strong are dead
that's the reason why I pray
my head is down my tears run through my pain
that's how I feel

When our brothers and sisters gets killed
but I know that's not your way
let the good ones die young
and let their mothers cry the pain
