Prisoners of life
PRISONERS OF LIFE
~~~
Meditating alone at the corner side
My fear didn't win over me
Knees against my chest, yet they aren't fair
Imagine the tears running down my eyes to the floor
Excultment eludes me; is it a crime?
Indeed! I can't tell it all
I had no time to hate
If nada else but I escaped those chains
And once again witness it
We are prisoners of life
Contaminated by this strife.
With hope hanging by my side
Black tears were all coming out
Anger was installed in my heart
This is what you turn me to
Your first sleep was faster
Your snoring was fatal
But I got no time to hate
Yet you didn't answer, "Is it a crime?"
Yet we save your fathers!
You didn't remember it a day
Another is coming, they will surely be jailed.
Prisoners of life
You gave me an enormous surprise
But I promise you a gigantic spasm
You will be bent over me
Trust my word!!
