Living With Cerebral Palsy; Cerebral Palsy is the captain of my body
Call My Body a Corpse, (Please?)

Written By Jenni Bailey



My body was bought, but can't afford
My body is stiff as a board
My body was created by my then-called Lord
My body carries a ''disease''
Cerebral Palsy. Yes...everyone sees
Call my body a corpse, Please
Cerebral Palsy is demanding
My body holds a misunderstanding
My body begs for a soft landing
Call my body a corpse
Because my body witholds such force
So when I die, I have control
Only when my body has taken it's toll
Cerebral Palsy steals the body, but not the soul
