My love for you lays hidden
Reared by Stereotype and Misconception
Asleep on IIgnorance’s sweet bosom
Hatred’s favourite son
My love for you lays hidden
Atop of towering castles
Built proudly by my Forefathers
Kept shielded from your foreign eyes
My love for you lays hidden
Sheltered by my place of worship
Guarded by my native tongue
My love for you lays hidden
In the company of Class and Social Norms
‘You will never be like us’
My love for you lays hidden
Caged by flesh and bone
Wrapped neatly in my distinctive tone
My love for you lays hidden
Set it free
Set it free
Open my heart and let it bleed on yours
