Rishit Desai - You and Us

You gave us legs, we trampled the earth,
You gave us hands, now we kill since birth;
You gave us eyes, but not the sight,
You gave us speech, now we speak to fight;

You gave us ears, but another's cries we cannot hear,
You gave us air, and we filled it up with fear;
You gave us a heart that can hurt more than a fall,
O! But why did you give us a brain. Now we doubt if you gave us anything at all.
