Who are you?
To say I don't need clean water
To say I don't deserve to eat
To say I can't have a pair of new shoes
To cover my bare feet

Who are you?
To say I am worthless
To say I belong in the street
To say I shouldn't have the comfort
Of a home, a life not of defeat

Who are you to say I'm unworthy
Who are you to say I'm wrong
Who are you to judge the things that have happened to me
And to kick me because I'm not strong

Just who ARE YOU??
