The Lottery Of Birth
LYRICS
We were born without a choice
We didn’t choose to live this life, we didn’t choose our bodies or how and when we die
We didn’t choose our parents
The country we were born
We didn’t choose the colour of our skin
We grow up believing what we’re told
And what we’ve seen
And Who we are today is what we’ve learned and where we’ve been
A poor man or a rich man
A murderer or king
The lottery of birth you either lose or you win
You could have been born a Christian, Muslim or Jew
You could have been told different versions of the truth
You could have been a paupers son
Or the heir to the throne You could have been born in a warzone
We could go on believing in a god that isn’t there
Or we could open up our eyes and see what’s real and make things fair
We really aren’t that different
We all came into life
through the lottery of birth
For a limited time
*There is a 3rd and 4th verse, I'll record them some other time.
