Aren'T You Fathers

What is wrong with your eyes?
What is wrong with your heart?
Your perception is weird
The illusions you are creating

What do you see in this child?
That in your eyes she is a woman
In your heart the beat is unusual
The abomination you can only think of

What is wrong with your body?
What is wrong with your muscles?
Only thinking of taking advantage
To this vulnerable and helpless souls

Open your eyes wide and see
Aren't you fathers anyway?
That you should use your strength
In protecting your women and children
