Into My Cherished Future
The tightened nut of self service
Confiscates my freedom
While at the same time
Intruding into my cherished future
I was born I was nowhere
I didn’t know I just found
My church my school my name
My people my problems my portion
The heart attack my people say my disease
My father’s epilepsy they call my share
I was born was once absent like a decease’
Intruding into my cherished future
Muslims to marry a suicide rope
In another Christian church to sing-
The doctrine forbids my cherished from
By drawing boundaries in the biblical thing
The tightened nut of self service
Who gonna help make loose?
For they say I own no nice
Intruding into my cherished future
Whatever is born is born new
Let not the old barricade
Choice to live choice to be
Let be self-service stop-
Intruding into my cherished future
My grandfather’s Grandfather grand further-
Got a road accident
Road accident’s portion
Intruded my cherished futures
I sing I sing the freedom
The model and similar blood paint
The term the differences a monstrous
Intruder into my cherished future
