Inside a shadow shell so deep
her lonely cry and silent weep
for understanding dat seem bleep
will she ever be complete
She cry for her people in hope
she looks from da bigger scope
her love is deeper then we know
one that forever grow
She lose sleep worring about life
she hurt n pain as a wife
she bare da labor to da child
yet she cry beyond da smile
She nourish what she breed
wit wisdom, knowledge and love she feed
put forth first every lil seed
yet not understand thy man
been da backbone to thy home
da sweet voice dat sing reality song
one who keeps man afloat
on da path away from da rope
yet don't understand why gun smoke
how her youth become da joke
locked and cage gone fo broke
inside da system of no hope
her cry is clear as day
for many reasons dat comes her way
her song is sung in da depth of morrow
out of pain and slumbering sorrow
her fears of world's horror
and da day
she have to lay down dat last flower
while she search for understanding.
