Abandoned
I whine and cry
Asking myself how do I get by?
With no money in my pocket
No food in sight
I would have to find a way to give the government a fight
Wishing for all things to be alright
I think their is no such thing as a might
Where ever I go to find a job
Everyone around me is a snob
I go home with tears in my eyes
I just found out that my mother dies
With more heartache inside
Now how will I ever survive?
I go to the funeral where my mother lays
I tell her please let me survive these couple of days
Now I live here alone
Starving to death I start to moan and groan
Someone knocks at my door
I see my dad there crying for help because he is sore
I let him in
He tells me that he has sinned
He told me to lets pray
For all the heartache and pain that he caused
Then he paused
Honey I'll be there someday
Even there is one way
Please listen to me what I have to say
I will take care of my daughter like I was supposed too
I'm sorry in that past that I have left you
Please forgive me
I will not ever leave you see
I will confess, I have sinned
But I will make it up this I promise
Amen.
