Blessed Child
Sterile. Empty. Nothing
Faces. Freezing. Rush toward me
Bananas and monkeys, pull hair strands and heart strings
A silent song, a foreign song I have to sing
Cuz I will never be the same
But I did not want to change
And I will never be the same
Now that I've seen your pain
Forsaken. Lonely. Nobody
Your hands reaching for me
Praise songs and dessert cement a bond I'll never forget
I don't know why your mother left you, but I hope she regrets
Cuz I will never be the same
But I did not want to change
And I will never be the same
Now that I've seen your pain
200 million. Lot's of you
Treasures. Hidden. In lonely ice cubes
Blessed child envious of you
I had love but I know that I wasn't more special then you
Cuz I will never be the same
But I did not want to change
And I will never be the same
Now that I've seen your pain
I can see the little faces with smiles
If you've got love then your embracing this child
The very ones that the racist profile
Could teach us all about some patience through trials
These type of babies come in thousands of styles
Check your neighborhood or travel thousands of miles
From the back blocks to alleys
Reach em young before they reach the crack rock in Cali
The side effects of being sexually abused
Will leave your heart numb and mentally confused
So let's turn these penitentiary blues into heavenly news
Rise up little baby, rise up, rise up little baby, rise up
I'll take you by my right hand, with my mic in the left
One on my back, we'll face the mountain top and ride to the death
Surely to collide with opposition as daddy provides us with the nutrition
To hop clouds and walk on water, chasing rainbows
Til every broken memory and pain goes
Marked with halo's perfectly fitted spiritual kangos
We share the same foes being from the same family tree
I've summoned the first world to come and take a stand with me
Rise up little baby rise up, put your eyes up, rise up
Cuz I will never be the same
But I did not want to change
And I will never be the same
Now that I've seen your pain
Faces. Freezing. Rush toward me
Bananas and monkeys, pull hair strands and heart strings
A silent song, a foreign song I have to sing
Cuz I will never be the same
But I did not want to change
And I will never be the same
Now that I've seen your pain
Forsaken. Lonely. Nobody
Your hands reaching for me
Praise songs and dessert cement a bond I'll never forget
I don't know why your mother left you, but I hope she regrets
Cuz I will never be the same
But I did not want to change
And I will never be the same
Now that I've seen your pain
200 million. Lot's of you
Treasures. Hidden. In lonely ice cubes
Blessed child envious of you
I had love but I know that I wasn't more special then you
