An uncommon sense Close to abandonment Learning discerning the difference Between do or die Each step taken away from A place of hopelessness Takes me closer to building another Kind of family nest There is no inclusion for those stigmatised Nobody close to us ever recognised Only exclusion for us out there Only delusional fuss and despair An uncommon sense So beautifully dressed In a moment of realness I fear I could be fearless Destitute out on my own I had to run this far from home The children of the damaged and unkind My new friends are like-minded It's a mechanism of surviving this The children of god, the children LaBeija Letras de canciones Found a place to express my soul Won't go on living in a shadow's hold So I'm going to the ball to get my prize Expensive things are the cheapist thrill No such thing as overkill Will we live on, the children of LaBeija? There is no inclusion for those stigmatised Nobody close to us ever recognised Only exclusion for us out there Only delusional fuss and despair If Paris is burning Then just let it burn The youth are very discerning Till you tear them apart You can't stop the children It's easy to mock This form of survival instinct Why should I stop? An uncommon sense So beautifully dressed My mama's mistake My father's heartbreak Young birds who are flightless Become birds of paradise And the practice of realness Feels so surreal From Letras Mania
