THE DOWN-BEAT LYRICS
I'm like an unsafe boy of no tranquil haven
Reaping his breath from the ghetto heaven,
With me, no feet stand as a shielding hark
Even my shadow waves “bye", when it's dark.
Daily as I peep the sky, in search for a better day
All I see is the shunning sun and it's ruining ray,
Still, some says; “in lot of lost, lies a lot of life",
Perhaps, they've never known what it takes, for boys like me to survive.
In dawn of today, I once hoped to be redesigned
Yet, when I woke, tribulation, is the only word that got me defined,
Times talk truly, but my success story, they can't mention
And when my mind is although choked, it has never skipped this question;
When will I spell g r e a t n e s s?
