THE PLIGHT OF AN URBAN BOY.

In the heart of the city
Where dreams collide with dust
A young boy wanders
His eyes clouded with mistrust.
The plight of an urban boy.

Concrete and steel rise high
But his hopes fall low
Chasing shadows in alleys
Where no light dares to go
The plight of an urban boy.

In a world so vast
He’s a soul misplaced
Unknown longing for a childhood
That the streets have never shown.
The plight of an urban boy.

Through crowded streets
His innocence takes flight
Lost among the chaos
Of the city's endless night
The plight of an urban boy.

A playground of asphalt
Where laughter seldom stays
He dreams of open skies
Far from the urban maze
The plight of an urban boy.
