Mercy The Mango
Fierce, hungry-looking from the slums
Children of the masses
Have declared an unmerciful war on me
Poor me, would be plucked to pieces
Sticks, stones, stuffs on equal strife
Flying like crazy missiles
Free styled projectiles
Uncontrolled shelling
Snatching as many of my hard work as possible
Which I've worked all season tirelessly for
Little children of school won't let my fruits be
They're determined to show me hell
