I am a stray dog.
I am little and hungry.
I am little and angry at the world.
I am scared and fragile.
Where did my mother go?
Mother, I am hungry.
Mother, I am scared.
Mother, I am cold.
Mother, where did you go?
Mother, have you abandoned me?
Mother, please help me.
Mother, please come back.
Mother, I am hungry.
Mother, I am scared.
Mother, I am cold.
Mother, they're chasing me.
Mother, they're hitting me.
Mother, mother, mother.
I am hurt. I am scared. I am fragile.
Oh, mother, to be loved, to be seen, to be heard, to be
treated the way I deserved.
Oh, mother, they give me food!
Oh, mother, I am full for the first time in my life!
Oh, mother, why is my belly hurting?
Oh, mother, why is my lung fuming?
Oh, mother, why is my breath waving?
Oh, mother, why I cannot see anymore?
Oh, mother, the same hands that pet me are hitting me.
Oh, mother, the hands that I thought gave me food took
my soul away.
Oh, mother, what did I do to deserve all of this?
I just existed.

I am a stray dog.
I am little and hungry.
I am little and angry at the world.
I am scared and fragile.
Where did my mother go?
Mother, I am hungry.
Mother, I am scared.
Mother, I am cold.
Mother, where did you go?
Mother, have you abandoned me?
Mother, please help me.
Mother, please come back.
Mother, I am hungry.
Mother, I am scared.
Mother, I am cold.
Mother, they're chasing me.
Mother, they're hitting me.
Mother, mother, mother.
I am hurt. I am scared. I am fragile.
Oh, mother, to be loved, to be seen, to be heard, to be
treated the way I deserved.
Oh, mother, they give me food!
Oh, mother, I am full for the first time in my life!
Oh, mother, why is my belly hurting?
Oh, mother, why is my lung fuming?
Oh, mother, why is my breath waving?
Oh, mother, why I cannot see anymore?
Oh, mother, the same hands that pet me are hitting me.
Oh, mother, the hands that I thought gave me food took
my soul away.
Oh, mother, what did I do to deserve all of this?
I just existed.
