Don’t front

God can you tell me please is this my curse
This tumour in my head is slowly killing my nerves
On top of that my friends left me in a lurch
I sit and drink and I curse
Sit and think and I burst
Into tears deep in depression
I sink and it’s worse
But I’m not ready to leave I got things to achieve on this earth
Its like death is a thief that’s picking a purse
Picture that purse is my life’s purpose driven off in a hearse

Must have faith
Nothing changes
Is what I’m led to believe
Except I won’t get what I was sent to achieve
When I sleep I have nightmares
About how my family will grief
I wake in the morning then I look at my seed
But this knop in my keel leaves me unable to speak
Aids is a killer - the statement is deep
Instead of spitting fleghm
I spit blood when I cough
My eye sites reiterated and it’s hardly enough

Chorus
So, if you gonna front
Don’t front on me
Rather front on that virus called HIV

This cat on TV says I must hope and maintain
But tell me how on earth I can cope with this strain
When my friends don’t visit me
It’s like I lost my dignity
Even Brasses who said they stick with me till the very end
Are spreading rumours
About how I’m scaring them
They afraid I might spit or cough and they catch it too
They afraid to even hug me
Or walk through my avenue
I can tell by my families’ attitude and their silence
They ashamed to even say I got the virus
They say I got cancer and infection in my sinus
It’s already a crisis to fight this bias
On top of that
I have to deal with high prices of pharmaceutical companies
Who wanna front on me?
And all they wanna do is make a bunch of money see
This is a summery of things I must endure
My ego’s crushed for sure
So people just ignore

Chorus

If you gonna front
Don’t front on me, rather front on this virus called HIV
I said if you gonna front don’t front on me
Rather front on this virus called HIV

I’m not the trick
Aids is a trick
I’m a HIV positive victim faced with the test
I’ve explained my prerogative before they lay me to rest
You need to stop and think
To portray me unlike the rest
You think you different cause infection didn’t show up on your test
And seen much evil by people who know that I’m depressed
It’s like I’m already on the ground and they kicking me in the chest
I’m walking around fighting for dignity in distress
Is it ignorance or prejudice leaving the people vex
And anyone with the human immune virus its best
to take heat and take a peak at the facts
You best believe when you read when you
And you peep at the stats
That one hundred six thousand people infected daily
Not only by sex or needles injected maybe
You need to test yourself
And then check your attitude
Cos someone in your family or even you might have it too
