I used to dream of things they've always had
Was dreaming that bad?
Got a few, didn't get a lot
Was happy atleast it was a start.
But that bit was not enough
How could it be? To not get it all was tough
I asked for more, they said no
I meekly let it go.
I learned their ways, atleast I tried
But everytime my heart cried
I asked myself why I couldn't?
My heart told me "because I shouldn't"
I realised I shouldn't have to ask
Like it was some sinful task
They thought it was a war against their persistence
They could not see it was just about my existence
Some of them do understand
Why don't they all form a band?
Cause sadly we still have to ask them
If they deny, I am the problem.
I will still take what is mine
Till then, I really won't feel fine
Trust me, just lemme have what I need
It's not at all about want or greed
Someday shall smile without having to hide any pain
That day I shall have washed away every stain
I shall then sleep peacefully
No nightmares, shall lead my life gracefully.
