about

I reflected back on the bullying and emotional/physical abuse that I experienced as a child from peers and people in the community because I "wasn't like the other boys". I wanted to write something to those who may be suffering the same way I did. It got better, it really did.

They Say
Written by Ken Cifuentes

They say
You fell out of step
So you better learn to walk like them
They say
Don’t even try
Cus’ you’re never gone stand a chance
They say
Abomination
You’re (bleep)ing up God’s big plan
They say
It’s all in your head
So you better learn to think like them

Though they multiply
It doesn’t make them right
The numbers are a lie.

And when the sun has gone
There always comes a dawn
As long as you hold on.
As long as you hold on.

And you say that you want to give up
Well I hope you don’t
If you feel like you’re ship is sinking
Let me help you float

How can I make you see you’re not alone
I’m with you at the front of this combat zone.
How can I make you see you’re not alone
I’m with you at the front of this combat zone.

They say
We’ll cut out your tounge
If you ever try to use your voice
They say
Don’t you complain
Cus’ afterall it was your choice
They say
Abomination
You’re (bleep)ing up God’s big plans
They say
It’s all in your head
So you better learn to think like them

Though they multiply
It doesn’t make them right
The numbers are a lie.

And when the sun has gone
There always comes a dawn
As long as you hold on.
As long as you hold on.

And you say that you want to give up
Well I hope you don’t
If feel like you’re ship is sinking
Let me help you float

How can I make you see you’re not alone
I’m with you on the front line of this combat zone.
How can I make you see you’re not alone
I’m with you on the front line of this combat zone.
