The ancestors saved me
It was a life that wasn’t meant to be
It wasn’t supposed to go that way
They knew from the first day
They always took care of me
They always knew it would be
They saved me from a deafening silence
They saved me from a place I could not speak
They saved me from a vultures beak
They saved me from the streets
They saved me from a place where darkness meets
They saved me from a world that me it would eat
Thankful for the ancestors that knew I needed a reprieve
Because I had lots of life up my sleeve
