Lyrics

Born

[Verse 1]

I heard a lady scream it broke my sleep in Eden

You nurtured me so perfectly but now I'm leaving

I'm so excited but scared I won't know how to breathe

This sort of place where everything could seem decieving

My forever's here, I know no yester-year

I wouldn't mind if like Morgan I be born a Freeman

Kicking, crawling, teething and grow to walk with creatures

A little kinder in their hearts that I'd find appealing

Now these walls are bleeding, I can feel them squeezing

I guess it's goodbyе to all the things I ever needеd

I know there's something outside, I can hear them speaking

This unknown to me dialect they all seem to speak in

And then for the first time I see the light

I saw them panicking, something ain't seeming right

Don't know what's happening, chest feeling really tight

I'm turning blue I don't think I'll even see this life

That's when they cut my cable and they whisked me off

Screamed "breathe" they ain't sure if I'ma live or not

That's when I saw a man cry and put his hands together

Whisper "God, I know that I ain't prayed a lot but my boy is just a baby please save him from, this type of fate, it's too young for you to take me on"

He said my boy is just a baby please save him from this type of fate

I'm begging you don't break our bond
