For the Record

Birth is obviously not when life gets its start
For long before, this baby already had a beating heart
They had their tiny little fingers and even smaller littler toes
But of this simple fact society acts like no one really knows

Birth is simply God's Way of unveiling
As that innocent little child comes out waling
Yet this is not the true beginning but the continuation
Something so unrealized by this sick and lost nation

Just knowing that one out of five children will not survive
For they will be slaughtered fully aware and certainly alive
Yet so many will just stand by not willing to even bat an eye
Oh that life begins at birth is such a wicked and evil lie

So while in one room she is celebrated and born
In the next one over he is mutilated with each and every limb torn
Yes birth can be such an amazing and wonderful joy
But it was at conception that God created both that little girl and boy
