blame us(a poem for those who deserve)

by Antwan Fields - Aries

an epidemic thats endemic
blame us for trying
the pain that we caused?
excuse us for dying
every second we try is another we lie
blame us for losing the money to fight AIDS
the scariest word in the english language
we're the first world, greatest country in the land
never really understood why we got so panned
but i know what we do, we try to help and pray
that we won't have to try and pay
but you make me an offer, i won't refuse
we weren't born to die or born to lose 
we try to share, and be fair 
instead they try to cut us off by the hair.
