The Forgotten Children (feat. Cynthia Montaño)

Mom, what does the cross say
Where is your child who brought the light
Where is the hope you had
Where is the innocence that soothes your soul

In that cross your name, remember what could have been
Your flight ended because your being went out
Because we closed our eyes and didn't want to see
Your body marked, your nights without end

Because we saw you laugh and didn't hear your tears
We ignored your voice in this restless life
Wake up, world wake up, people wake up
Children suffer, die, and society doesn't care

And I remember you and the years go by
And I remember you and the years go by
And I remember you and the years go by
And your pain still follows me

My prayer for the forgotten children
(Follow the footprints through the clouds that reach the sky)
Let's cry for their dreams, embraced
(For their dreams, their laughter must be respected)
How to tell them how much I love them
And that their lives of pain and tears have not been in vain

Forgive me
If I failed you forgive me
For forgetting
For your pain, forgive me
That look
That I will carry in my heart
Spoke clearly

Mom where was I when everything happened
Your tears and pain, God closed his eyes
Man threw you far from paradise

Humanity without soul, took you away from paradise
Exile and oblivion snatch what God gave you
The consequence has been a world living empty
Because your innocence has left this world

[?] in this world there are still blossoms
If [?] their lives [?]
Let's change this, let it not happen again
Boys and girls without fear can grow

And I remember you and the years go by
And I remember you and the years go by
And I remember you and the years go by
And your pain still follows me

My prayer for the forgotten children
(Follow the footprints through the clouds that reach the sky)
Let's cry for their lives, embraced
(For their dreams, their lives must be respected)
How to tell them how much I love them
And that their lives of pain and tears have not been in vain

My prayer for the forgotten children
(Everyone [?] to that [?] for [?])
Let's cry for their dreams, embraced
(For their dreams, their lives must be respected)
How to tell them how much I love them
And that their lives of pain and tears have not been in vain

Forgive me
If I failed you forgive me
For forgetting
For your pain, forgive me
That look
That I will carry in my heart
Spoke clearly
