Analysis of Cursed
Hasan Johnson 1980 (Peoria Illinois)
Don’t know when where or why
Losing hope
Failed at everything
Pray and ask for this and that
Only to be disappointed again
Why Lord
Why awaken me for another day of sorrow
Why must I endure more pain
Discontent until death finds me
Until then I hang my head in shame
Please take away my poverty
In my sins I retreat
Disconnected from you
Till judgment day we meet
