Inherited

Erythrocyte condition

Malformed

Cell shape disposition

Disorder

Oxygen not distributed

To this cause

Your demise is attributed

A condition

Shortening your life

Your perdition

By deformed erythrocytes

It feels I’m being stabbed

The blade goes real deep

A throbbing in my head

Losing my mind and sleep

It feels I’m being stabbed

The blade twists in deep

My head is exploding

The end is complete

Sick, sick, sickle cells

Sick, sick, sickle cells

Reducing

Your life expectancy

Middle-aged

Facing your debility

Vessels blocked

By the sickle cells

The pain is real

Your body is your hell
