580,000 missions, every 8 min, 24/7 in the region

************************************************
Look up above, "it's a bird, it's a plane, it's a UXO"
270 mil bomblets fell, hibernated inside our hills
children walk unsuspectedly across sweet rice field
<(อื)> <(อื)>
the gifts of democracy still keeps on killing
as echoes of a secret war tic-tocs into the living
our children walks about on broken limbs
the faceless smiles of death's darkest grins
{พิพิพิพิพิ}
as the Lao villagers preps and plows the lands
cards of misfortunes dealt into their hands
bombarded grounds beneath their feet
from the far reaches of Hell
cuts deep into their limbs
"KABOOM"
(life, limbs, dreams blown to smithereens)
they laid motionless
twitching in agony
in a pool of blood
phantom limbs 🦶
broken 💣 things🦵
♥️ heart pounding
shattered dreams
| spinning head 👶 |
| 👂ears ringing |
| vision👁less |
Parents rush towards the sounds of the boombies
many, a dreadful afternoon they stood like zombies
on the dirt picking up pieces of their broken hearts
bloody remains as her mangled body all fell apart

as betrayals lies still beneath our grounds
270 million UXO and agent orange compounds
unexploded ordnance many yet to explode
3-generations poisoning til this day, behold

they sprayed us down, with orange herbicides
cowards called that war, let's call it genocides
poisons seeped deep into their human core
family portrait broken smiles, US seeks to ignore

Imagine living or walking on land that may explode
as poisons seeps into the foods from down below
don't mistake needed reparations for retributions
we seek recognition so as to give us reconciliation
อือือือือือือือือือือือือือือือือืBLU 03อือือือือือือือือือือือือือือือื
you see in wars there are really no winners
even if you're the weapons manufacturers
the deaths they sowed they'll reap in Hell
{ุุุุfor all those innocent deaths they befellุุุุ}
