it owns many names
it has many kinds
one type is more painful than the other?
did u guess it now?
if you didn't
don't worry
i have more things to explain
it tortures your soul
and kills it when you're alive
it can affect any part of your body
that you can't survive
if you do survive
then you're a hero
and you just won the battle
between life and death
but you should struggle first
because there were many people who gave up
they died as they lost this battle
if you need help
don't worry
i'll try to find the cure
i hope i do
once you're diagnosed with it
you feel down
but don't you ever lose your faith
because our god is always there
when the slaves need help
all you've got to do is pray
don't let weakness take over you
you can be stronger than that
if it's called cancer,
then you can be the whale
so don't give up
just pray as i told you
and you'll never fail.
