Foreigner in Your Own Country
Feeling excluded for your slang
doubtful on what to say
speaking in higher measures
impressing your fellow family
realising you forgot yourself
excluded from many scenes
acting out
being withhold from speech
watching your words carefully
danger lurking daily
not feeling safe in your own home
flee to the next stop
and deciding to leave everyone behind
and find peace in a new haven
