me and my children, images were chillin'[00:00:48]
my son said, "daddy were there people in that building?"[00:00:50]
a cold sweat, frozen with a lump in my chest[00:00:54]
i heard his question, couldn't bring my lips to say "yes" to him[00:00:57]
that night at my son's side, he cried and prayed[00:01:01]
for the one's who died in the world trade[00:01:04]
his palms to god, seeds and qualms with god[00:01:06]

then one week later our bombs were dropped[00:01:12]
we seein' them on cnn, they just won't stop[00:01:15]
