[Boonaa Mohammed - Could have been lyrics]
It could have been you
All alone wondering what you're gonna do
Where will you find food?
When you don't have a penny to your name
When you hurt it's all the same
Nobody knows your name
You're just that static we
Mention during campaigns
The blood in your veins
Is cheaper than propane
You aren't even seen as human
To be treated inhumane
You are less than minimum wage
At the bottom of the food chain
All the water that you've saved
Isn't even enough to bathe
You havе every right to be afraid
Your see dеath everyday
And it may be your fate before the age of 8
Have you ever seen a child in such dire need
That they can't even eat
Cause it hurts when they breath
Woe be to he, who holds back what he receives
Your money is a trial, so don't be guilty
Of living filthy, while their living filthy
Learning to sleep with sickness and disease
Before you disagree, see yourself on TV
And wonder who would be there
To take care of me
I have basic needs, food, clothes, family
And education I can't achieve in poverty
Who will be my hero, and add to my zero
I'm starting to lose hope
Can you see me in the mirror
Looking back at you, from my point of view
Who's to the rescue
From a life I didn't choose
Everything I been through
Will it ever improve
If you only knew, it could have been you
All alone wondering what you're gonna do
Where will you find food?
When you don't have a penny to your name
When you hurt it's all the same
Nobody knows your name
You're just that static we
Mention during campaigns
The blood in your veins
Is cheaper than propane
You aren't even seen as human
To be treated inhumane
You are less than minimum wage
At the bottom of the food chain
All the water that you've saved
Isn't even enough to bathe
You havе every right to be afraid
Your see dеath everyday
And it may be your fate before the age of 8
Have you ever seen a child in such dire need
That they can't even eat
Cause it hurts when they breath
Woe be to he, who holds back what he receives
Your money is a trial, so don't be guilty
Of living filthy, while their living filthy
Learning to sleep with sickness and disease
Before you disagree, see yourself on TV
And wonder who would be there
To take care of me
I have basic needs, food, clothes, family
And education I can't achieve in poverty
Who will be my hero, and add to my zero
I'm starting to lose hope
Can you see me in the mirror
Looking back at you, from my point of view
Who's to the rescue
From a life I didn't choose
Everything I been through
Will it ever improve
If you only knew, it could have been you
