I was born into this world
To be the dream, the change
I was born into this world
But now I am your slave

I was born into this world
To fend for myself and my brothers
I was born into this world
Yet I became your lover

I was born into this world
To be a sister, a daughter, a wife and friend
I was born into this world
With the name ‘prostitute’, and a ‘good for nothing’, as my brand

I was born into this world
With a dream of becoming someone
I was born into this world
And I became no one

I was born into this world
Wishing I could have a life
I was born into this world
And I became your dead wife

I was born into this world
As a woman, a daughter, a child
I was born into this world
And you all took away my life
