No one told me about this pain.
Everything hurts,even my pride.
It's these emotions I am forced to contain.

Tears has fallen from my eyes like a steady rain.
Nothing can take back these nights I've cried.
No one told me about this pain.

My feelings I can not even explain.
To you, my heart was open wide.
It's these emotions I am forced to contain.

I'm at the where i feel not but shame
Because I thought you were going to be my guide.
No one told me about this pain.

With you is where I wanted to remain.
Now i have to continue on with a long stride,
It's these emotions i am forced to contain.

Please tell me our relationship was not in vain.
I hope to not regret having tried.
No one told me about this pain.
It's these emotions I  am forced to contain.

Hush little baby
Don't you cry
Look into my
Deep brown eyes
I tell you now there comes a day
When life gets better for you baby
Baby. Ooh. Baby.
Yes. Life gets better for you baby.

Chains, all around me.
Whiplash everytime I hear a heartbeat.
Work from dawn to dusk
All day in the sun
No break for me
No I don't get none.
"Plow this pick that.
I need some cotton.
Make me my money
Before I beat you rotten"
Beat me down
But my pride's unbeatable.
**** me now
But my hiers will be equal.
Be equal. Be equal. Be equal.

Chorus

"Hey, fight this war for me.
If you do I'll bring you
All out of slavery"
Deal's fair enough
Only if it were true
I might be out chains
But still beneath you.
Can't learn. Can't vote.
And Why you ask?
It's cuz my skin's
Dark and you just can't have it.
Cant have it. Cant have it.

Chorus

We'll fight our war
And we'll fight it united.
Unity and peace
That's what we'll fight with.
Our battle scars
They will come with us knowing
That our blood was shed
But the better days are coming.
We'll dream like kings
And we'll sit in our seats
Breaking down the walls
Separating you and me.
And me. And me.

The better days
They are coming for you baby
You'll see the better days
One brighter day
For you baby.
The better days
They are coming for you and me
Won't be no slavery
It's so justly for you and me.

Heart is the ocean of creations
Love is the boat
Takes you there
Embrace love
Reach to your own heart
Pouring creations
To the world
Making the existence
So proud

It took his resolve
a mere tear
to settle the drought
that lasted for years.
Don't be afraid
Even God's weep.

The grand prize
love seen through
an adopter's eyes
are precious child
diamond's guise
