I was once born an
innocent little boy
I was reaching out to you with
my heart and soul
I begged please don’t let me go
Nights were long and lonely
*
Yet, each day
as a girl,
they took hold of my hand
*
As a boy, I could not
help you understand
you refused to see me
Won’t you please,
give me love?
*
I was invisible to you
so I had to share that love
with the girl you made me be
because they told you I could not exist.
*
No one to help me cope
The government, doctors, and councilors
against me
with such a heavy load
I was so little facing the burden of
eugenics
*
as they killed me
I became the living dead
mom, you could not see
as you called me Tony
with an i
*
Yet, to this day
a survivor of such horrors
a living nightmare
still
trying to touch and reach you with
my heart and soul
*
Won’t you please,
give me love
Give me life.
Don’t kill us before we are even born
I beg you
to never do this to another little
boy
*
This is our world too
Let me drop this heavy load
now that I am a
man
*
Take hold of my hand,
again
As you listen to our words you can
now understand
it is eugenics
*
Give me hope
Help me cope
it was never my
heavy load
*
Trying to reach you with
my heart and soul
*
People in power and control
Won’t you
end this
atrocity?
