    I was reborn into the House
    Of the people I troubled
    I was born amongst
    Stone and Rubble

    Father worked himself
    Into a heart attack
    Mother became a maid
    For a family of
    Who stabbed us
    In the back

    But it was me
    In previous life
    I was tall, arrogant
    And I violated the
    Tenant's wife

    I usurped these
    Good people's Property
    And forced them
    Into abject Poverty

    Now I pay the price
    My karma is no better
    That the vermin who
    Who steal our food
    And make holes for
    Invasion of lowly mice

    I see the people
    Whom I made suffer
    I cry and cry
    And now I truly
    Regret my blunder

    Now that I know my past
    I can look into the future
    I can try to work hard
    And try to act fast
    Perhaps get a home
    That is super-duper

    I can look for opportunity
    To help my frail Mother
    And my dear siblings
    Many a Sisters and
    Crippled older Brother

    I was once blind
    Now I can see
    I now realize
    That my karma was
    Caused by me
