A RAINFALL IN THE STORM

What a life in the jungle

Struggling to be a hero
Staying always alone in one angle
But the reward to this is zero
What a rainfall in the storm

Running always alone in the valley
Walking alone on the sharp stone
If you are injured really
Nobody knows but you alone
What a rainfall in the storm

You move now and you later find ladder
You are climbing but shake by some
If at all you work harder
This people will still fill your mat with a
sharp stones
What rainfall in the storm

Tell me not that
Not that I didn't struggle
But about the people like bat
Always they try to entangle
What a rainfall in the storm

A racist and a sadist are the masters
In hardship we pay ransom
If you don't, there is no matter
And many struggler are now in boredom
What a rainfall in storm

We dwell in the wicked dukedom
We still must not tender our complaint
If you do, you criticise their wicked kingdom
With their power they gave fish a poisonous bait
What a rainfall in the storm

Oh you the unquestionable questionnaire!
Know your time is limited
For our freedom is what we think is the best fair
Give us before you will be prosecuted
For we don't want to suffer again in a rainfall in the storm
