Cancer



Momma I am scared I can't take this pain no more.
I can see the angels they are knocking on my door.
My hair has fall out and my tears keep flowing.
I have no more ambition to keep on going.
People are cruel momma they keep calling me names.
Pushing and pick as I am a pawn in there game.
I quit momma I am worn out.
Let me go to sleep, i hear the angels shout.
The demons on my shoulder are dragging me down.
As people laugh at me like a clown.
But the clown is done and has gone insane.
Lay me to rest and take my pain
