Wrong Zone

I knew a man when he grew up
in this land.
I knew a man who didn’t always understand.
He was in the wrong zone and others
never shis hand.
I knew a man when he was bullied
and abused.
I knew a man that was beaten and accused.
He was in the wrong zone, so tied up
and so very confused.
Hold on, be strong, if you are there
in the wrong zone.
Hold on, be strong, when you are there
in the wrong zone
and left alone.
I knew a man when he was lonely
and afraid.
I knew a man who kept quiet and obeyed.
He was in the wrong zone and wished that
he had never been made.
I knew a man and I still know him
today. And you
can see that he’s still wounded in a way.
He was in the wrong zone, I should have
forced him not to stay.
Hold on, be strong, if you are there
in the wrong zone.
Hold on, be strong, when you are there
in the wrong zone
and left alone.
