Naked Womb

Her life was difficult enough you see What made matters worse Is when she gave up me I had never had a chance Looking at me To some was just a glance I wanted to come show myself to all But to my surprise I wasn't even worth a call I would have made life a real joy The only thing about it They got rid of me Who was a healthy baby boy She could have gave me my father's last name But instead she feared Her life with me would never be the same I forgave her because I knew I was a big risk It was hard enough not knowing if I would exist I didn't want to leave this place That I call home What made it worse Was that I was not alone But in the end I was happy to be set free Because I knew God had a home waiting for me
