ASK (Always Seeking Knowledge) - No Choice, No Voice lyrics

Try to speak for those who don't have a choice The forgotten children we'll provide with a voice Wonder why we always talk about them girls & boys Told you once, they're pearls, but don't make noise They don't make headlines, yet they walk with poise Regardless of your birthplace, you deserve to rejoice Innocent from birth, but the burden broke his back Life wasn't fair-no one was there- so he lost track Still no one care- he never knew his mom or his dad Could no longer bear, so he sought comfort in crack So sad, but a reality, from Washington to Bagdad Everybody is so busy blowing their own trumpet But it's easy to talk about poverty on a full stomach And your double standards stick like sh** to a shovel Teach kids to be real, not someone else's puppet You promote war, but never heard a gunshot before You have everything in life, but still want more Looking everywhere, but what are you looking for It's so easy to talk about coexistence & tolerance Watching the world from a position of dominance So ask yourself, if you have a clean conscience Don't write about love, but people with few options Guess- I was blessed-so represent those who have less Because I know people who have been through stress And I always tell them- smile- because life is a test -ASK
