She yearns for strong arms to protect her
To hold her tight in a loving embrace
And to know that hers is friend called happiness
She wakes up with a smile on her face
Optimistic about the days planned events
Not knowing that she would be judged according to her race
The skin tone and the beauty of her face….
She sings a song
And hopes that someone will sing along
She has worked hard for so long
And now after years if toil she sits back to relax and savour how it feels to belong
But little does she know that she is so wrong
Or how far she is from home and security
For the world cares for nobody….
She loves and she cares
She lives and she breathes
The days go by and she still wishes
When she shuts her eyes dreams she still sees
But never will she know how it feels to have somebody who truly cares
Beacuse this world in which we live loves nobody
This world cares for nobody
