Betrayed

I was stolen by my fate 
I was thrown to the grave
deep wounds buried
that no body carried.
  .........
wow, the look on their faces
They were sure to engrave it
never being able to forget it
Of how much I starved?
   .........
Asking for help
no one was there
asking for charity 
nobody care.
    .........
I'm a fool to believe in them
betrayed by my brother and sister
I'm sorry if it's disappointing
I didn't know you were enjoying.
     .........
Screw this century 
I'm not walking down the path they planned for me
I have my own pride and my own dignity
Fight for the honor of the betrayed and seek it with victory.
