Poem
I was born a child of The Lord of The Jungle I was loved, the apple of His eye, His joy in a bundle He had a great plan for me as His child in His circle of life But, there a lesser power lurked, one of evil and strife One day he came and took the life of my dad the King Then turned on me, his plan from the beginning The kingship, he wanted, so he began to deceive me He said I was responsible, no good and I was guilty Feeling more like a rat than one destined and called I slunk away, head low and on my belly I crawled Then I ran so far away, that I couldn’t look back On my calling or son ship, seeing only my lack I took the identity of my new friends in Accunamatada I soon forgot where I came from and who was my Father I forgot who I was, my calling and my true destination I forgot my enemy and my responsibility to my nation But my Dad was always with me, without and within Sent His Helper to me, His comforter and friend To remind me of who I really was from the beginning To leave Accunamatada, go home and stop sinning I’m too far from that life now, that’s too far in the past I desire no worries now and my new friends are a blast So He picked up a board and hit my head with a whack! Said, “No worries my boy, now that whacks in the past!” See, Scar is a hard taskmaster to your true people today And the top of the food chain are cowering and afraid While he has you happy here in Accunamatada Land Your people are enslaved there by your enemies hand Turn from your feasting, playing and procrastination Remember your calling and your true destination Stop living in complacency here without an scars While your family is hungry and weary at war Get up from that couch now and turn off that TV Your Father is waiting, get down on your knees Intercede and cry out and show that you care For your brothers and sisters who suffer out there Then I remembered, I was the son of the King And my brothers and sisters were suffering I turned around and ran back as fast as i could I had family to save and save them I would
