Hello

Hello! You seem to have made me a forgotten memory, But I’m a reality, that you never realize is Right in front of you, still you choose to be blind Hello! You drive by me every morning After you've had a nice dream But I, during the night is pardoned By nature's breeze. You get filled with luxury While I yawn for the crumps That never reaches my feet Hello! I've been isolated We've been isolated Tanned with a lasting stigma That flows through our children Do we never come across your minds? Even for a sec? We are peasants The only ones who never get to their dreams Hello! We are trash seen on rags And waste bins that will get rotten in time Irritating blue dogs Disgusting sour eggs Forgotten creatures of the void planet Cold bricks of woods Hoping to die frozen Leafs to cover our disdained skins. Hello! Our voices turns to echoes Our children sinks to the depths of the sea They yawn for the walls of education, but are burnt. You sneeze into our poverty We never even get the chance to dream or imagine Neither do we relax our mindless minds Because we don't lay with both eyes closed. So if the rulers of the night Comes visiting to dominate The little we've survived We could race to somewhere else However, we race to the bridges, The bridges full of monstrous monsters Same lane you dance by Seeing us flying with our plates or non. you tied your heads to the train Keeping them straight and glued to the front road Like you never saw any living insects On the streets of Vegas Hello! Yes we are homeless! Yes we are hopeless!! But we are not dreamless, How long shall you pretend? That you lack the capacity to set us free Free like a bird Have you no compassion for us? You could make our dreams come true But you put them on wears and holds Letting our talents Fall down the way side Our music, to the dogs Our raps, to he bedbugs Our crowns, to the mosquitoes Are we not worthy of good living? Or has life itself thrown us To the den of bees? Hello! How long shall we suffer? How long shall you forget?
