I have spent many years sheltered by love Shielded from the world’s villainous beings Beyond blessed to live a life undreamt-of Your hands guided mine through ev’ry teaching Unknown that greed and hatred lingered near and that money took a devilish form. All I knew was to put the silver spoon here, to rise with the sun, butlers by the swarm You told lies- hid me from reality The sight of such a place scorches my heart The devil struts the streets safe from chivalry Children go unnoticed- lost in the dark What happened to God? Where are the Angels? All you told me has put me in danger

Reality
I have spent many years sheltered by love Shielded from the world’s villainous beings Beyond blessed to live a life undreamt-of Your hands guided mine through ev’ry teaching Unknown that greed and hatred lingered near and that money took a devilish form. All I knew was to put the silver spoon here, to rise with the sun, butlers by the swarm You told lies- hid me from reality The sight of such a place scorches my heart The devil struts the streets safe from chivalry Children go unnoticed- lost in the dark What happened to God? Where are the Angels? All you told me has put me in danger
