Leave Me
Sun's rising over the market
There's flowers in the morning air
Enjoying curry on banana leaf
There's nothing in the world that compares
Stunning sights, morning light, colors bright, in the night
Delicious bites surround you
Not concerned with women
Or decisions
Or opinions
Caught up in your pleasures that will never end
You could continue to buy excessive food
Poverty surrounds but you never stop to brood
Dirty hands in my face asking me for a handout
Leave me, leave me, leave me
Let me eat, give space, all you beggars better clear out
Leave me, leave me, leave me
I say Leave me, leave me, leave me
Why can't I eat in peace?
Leave me, leave me
Let me take my time
Leave me, leave me
To enjoy the things that I call mine
Something is wrong, I'm not feeling all right
Scanning the room looking for a men's sign
Stomach feels off, my gut's knotted up tight
Don't think this will be a good night
Forehead wet with sweat, I'm thinking it could be a virus
Stomach feeling upset, is it bad yet? It's a crisis
Blood leaving my face, begin to race, is it malaria?
Got to leave this place, I need some space, I feel hysteria!
Leave me, leave me
God forsaken pain
Leave me, leave me
It's consuming
All of my brain
As I'm doubled, breathing hard. Help me!
Kindly man, takes my arm. Come with me!
I don't understand
He leads me toward a temple
Is he one of the beggars?
Have I been wrong? So judgemental!
Leave me, leave me
Godforsaken pain!
Leave me, leave me
So I no longer feel my shame!
You have been infected by your own mentality
The sickness will now leave if you face reality
The people that surround you now are not your enemy
They hope, and hope, and hope and pray to leave this poverty
Do not harbor malice for these
People that are lacking wealth
You'll never learn to help yourself
If you can't help somebody else
Leave him, oh leave him, oh leave him, leave him, leave him, leave him! Hey!
He will come to see that we are not the ones in poverty
Leave him, oh leave him, oh leave him, leave him, leave him, leave him! Hey!
We pray he will wake to find there's no gain in this misery
Leave him, oh leave him, oh leave him, leave him, leave him, leave him! Hey!
Leave him, oh leave him, oh leave him, leave him, leave him, leave him! Hey!
Leave him, oh leave him, oh leave him, leave him, leave him, leave him! Hey!
Leave him, oh leave him, oh leave him, leave him, leave him, leave him! Hey!
Hi sir! Would you like to try on this watch?
Psh, no! Overpriced crap!
