Noa - Mark Of Cain Lyrics
I am a young womanWith callused hands and feetWith an ever - growing problemBuried in me deepIt has stripped me of my beautyWith an overwhelming painAnd on yesterday's proud foreheadIt has burned the mark of CainIt happened long agoThough it seems like only yesterdayI had come back homeAfter years of wandering astrayWalked familiar streetsNever knowing fate would find me thereAnd ever since I've been crippled'Neath this burden I must bear.The Mark of CainThe child of painOf trouble and of warMother Nature cannot comfortNor the coolness of the seaLord above, how can I loveThis thing that I abhor?Child of pain is growing in meWithin me he is waging warBattling for breathBattling for bloodAnd a body of His ownI've considered the solutionBut that would be my deathFor while I've waited and debatedHe has grownDeep in my heartI wish I could love himErase our past with a mother's embraceI want to start freshBut within me I'm fearful..Will I find my oppressor in his tiny face?The Mark of CainThe child of painOf trouble and of warMother Nature cannot comfortNor the coolness of the seaLord above, how can I loveThis thing that I abhor?Child of rapeIs growing in me.
