Loading Alicia Keys data from Instagram. Please wait... @aliciakeys : Every child should be allowed to play...
Out in the light of the sun
And splash through puddles with little toy cars
In Blissful days of fun
Every child should be able to run
Through a field of undiscovered dreams
With a heart and mind as carefree as hair blowing through the breeze
But instead they come undone
crying in cages for mommy and daddy who they’ve literally been torn from
Cowered in a corner holding the crumpled paperwork of their mother
Forced to memorize the number
of an aunt who will protect them if any one of their captors would choose to call
Broken by terrified memories that will never be erased at all
Every child should be able to laugh
As easy as the wind
Instead of the brutal aftermath of the sin we left them in
What comes of the brutal aftermath
Of the sin we left them in?
