Painful Bloody Tears
My child, the one i left under the care of flies
My child, the one i didn't give a chance
Mother's heart still bleeds with pain
Pain of losing you consciously
My child, my hands can't carry your blessed body
Cos i'm unworthy to hold on to such a beauty
Yet i'm letting you go with a heart full of pity
I remember the pains of bringing you to life
Mother had to do what she did
The situation wouldn't let mother keep you
Its with painful bloody tears i dump you
And leave you under the care of street cats and big flies
Now mother is hating herself all day long
I yearn for my baby's joyous angry cries
And the feel of his tiny blessed lips on my breasts
My baby growing up without me is the best
Cos being with your mommy won't give you rest
Still i know you deserve more than the street's nest
Baby please grow up to be a winner
If you can survive life in the streets without being a sinner
My child, make me proud and become people's pillar
I count on you not to be like me, please differ
Mommy is going to miss you so much especially at dinner
