Orphan Song

Gather 'round children
A tale to tell
A prince to a popper to king
A curious young prince
Thrown out of his kingdom
Stripped of his title and ring
(what was his crime?)
Wanting what only his father could give
(what became of this man?)
An outcast, fugitive, never a chance to live

The prince so he wandered so sad and so lonely Looking for others like him
Like a lion, a king
He prowled and he feasted
Finding his strength from within
(Did his father come seeking?)
The prince was abandoned like you
(What can we do?)
Never look back, it only gets better - follow me into the light and you'll see!

You don't need a mother
You don't need a father
You don't need a family- you're king!
Orphans unite, come find your acceptance,
Your freedom, your right, come sing

My father’s out drinking
My mother is ill
I am the ghost they don’t see
Left out in the cold
No one to turn to
Will the family I want ever be?
(What twas your crime?)
Wanting what others receive
(What should you do?)
Search for a family, I know a homes out there, we know in our hearts it’s there, we believe!!

You don't need a mother
You don't need a father
You don't need a family- you’re chance!
Orphan’s unite come find your acceptance,
Your freedom, your right, come dance!


No, don’t go
Hold back your feet from this path
Know, my love
A voice that is true amidst the wrath

I am is I Am
The Father of truth,
the one who gives us life Abaddon
How long will you continue to deceive?!

Come with me and I will give you eyes to see
Shadow me and you’ll become like God
Taste the fruit you surely will not die
Gather together and follow me into the light!!

Our mothers can’t help us
We hate all our fathers
All orphan’s at heart don’t you see...
All on our own, we make our own choices

No matter your plight or your plea!!!
 

Never look back,
We know a homes out there,
You know you’re alone now,
No matter our plight or our plea!!!
