Compromised

I was 

A daughter of a mongol

And the sister of a sinner

I was compromised 

Compromised 

In the head

As I work with

Each breath

Takin’ time for me I

Was one more prescription away from 

The devil

And one sadness from extinction 

For I was

A daughter of a mongol

Of many colours

Calicoes 

Here my people

I was traumatized 

But have raisen 

Above it

For art is my god

And music my church

For I was the daughter of a scientist 

And the sister of a sinner

Lookin’ like a heathen

But smart

I was traumatized 

But have raisen 

Above it

For art is my god

And music my church

I was compromised 

And out of control 

But creativity 

Untucked my brain
