Chorus:
City life is full of all sorts of spirits and stories
Varied in time and emotion,
Families grow while many fall through the cracks.
Verse 1:
Marie, a mother of five tries to make ends meet as
best she can.
She must choose between food and heat or whether a
child has shoes on her feet.
Each day she asks “why”

why must I decide?
Isn’t life worth more than this?
Verse 2:

She’s helped raise the kids good
and created a community
Each day she asks god for continued unity.

My favorite group when I was just a teenager were the Fugees, thanks to them a certain curiosity about english language was born in me. I wanted to know and understand the lyrics of their songs, it wasn't enough for me to be carried away exclusively by their beautiful music.
Sweden and the United States are two countries far from each other, thousands of kilometers separate them, the language, culinary and sporting traditions, I don't feel so categorical about the landscapes, not knowing all of America there may be states that have the same reliefs of the country of northern Europe, but on one thing I am sure
