The easy, fast & fun way to learn how to sing: 30DaySinger.com
With teenage parents in The Northeast's winter teeth A child dressed in bruises Neglect's sweat soaking sheets Mother's resenting eyes Father's fumbling hands Petal fallen to storm Cast out to barren lands Exhaust emaciated frame Cement bed of recess yard Fall lapsing into coma white Wake to fifth grade cards They put a price tag on my vial of life My breath is profit, not a basic human right All of the days spent monitoring in fear... I live for my brother and the people I hold dear Needle pointing compass Navigating veins All paths plagued in sugar Dizzy missing frames Death hides in my shadow Tugging swollen feet Christmas skin - jab it in Mother's sending sweets Survival assembly line Patient demoralized in care Tied up and strangled by The red ticker tape of our health fare They put a price tag on my vial of life My breath is profit, not a basic human right All of the days spent monitoring in fear I live for my brother and the people I hold dear...
