The shepherds wronged their lamb

[lionking]

I wish it's easy to pull, I wish I didn't allow
I wish I knew what I'm already contemplating right now
I was a kid so easy to trap, so easy to shut
I wish people understand and that they would lend a hand

A young boy, innocent and young, never knew he was robbed
Poor little kid never knew water's sweeter than blood
Pierced his very soul with seeds telling him it's all his fault
He didn't know he's a victim and his wound's full of salt

I've been a docile lamb with shepherds who were made of guns
I am, but an animal so they did things that can be done
I feel branded with fear, I'm frozen in terrible shame
I weep to be a child once more and to not have the same

this would sound even better read aloud as spoken word.
it has a very strong rhythm.
solid. tight as a drumbeat.

Very very powerful words. Your name is also well chosen, I suspect there is a Lion inside you somewhere, ready to fight for and defend what is rightfully his.
