I AM YOUR CHILD
By Indira Rai-Choudhury
July 22, 2004
Born of blood, of pain, and dust A child born a man Forged by the hands of the unjust -I am your child
Tanks and bombs cannot shake me Far more than a man Your soldiers will never break me -I am your child
Injustice makes me stronger Stronger every day Blood just increases my hunger -I am your child
The song of justice will appease me A song you wont sing In your prison, death just frees me -I am your child
With every mother's tears My thirst increases You have created your worst fears - I am your child
A phoenix from the ashes I will rise again Pour the gas, I light the matches I am your child
Never did you understand all my suffering Now the child has become a man I am your child
I am
