Cancer In The Universe

We spent five days
in the back of a truck
arrived in your land shit outta luck
We’d nowhere to sleep, nowhere to wash
but we stayed out of sight, made it across
Late that night
hate showed up in town
a gang of young fascists hunted us down
You tripped and fell as we fled from the lane
I turned and saw them blow out your brains
Was it love or hate that came in first?
Was the winner death or was it birth?
Did it start down here on Earth?
Cancer in the Universe!
I stayed alive
but I cannot lie
I was ripped apart when my brother died
I’ll hear his screams ‘til the day I’m done
and the deafening sound of that hellish gun
Unloved at birth
with no after thought
we were orphans wanting more than we got
Homeless migrants from a war-torn zone
refugees caught in search of a home
Was it love or hate that came in first?
Was the winner death or was it birth?
Did it start down here on Earth?
Cancer in the Universe!
He’s in me now
like he was back then
alive in my thoughts until the end
Who knows who goes before the other
that's how it was for me and my brother
Was it love or hate that came in first?
Was the winner death or was it birth?
Did it start down here on Earth?
Cancer in the Universe!
