Barefooted

Amid a tempting generation Is the presence of extreme desecration History beckons on history Evil now occupies mans memory Where is love? Where is peace? What has affected mankind like a disease In the land,i search for purification Only to behold with mine eyes "Moral degradation" I weep,i wail,i think,i am pale For to mankind i ask,"which Creator do you now hail" Pestilence,Hatred,Wickedness Are elevated in today's presence Mankind has adopted treason And as such,no longer reasons Upon those concrete issues that create joy within They now serve a god called "money" Upon this noble earth are ignominious deaths of people who were stars at birth Where is the sacredness of human life God Almighty established us in beautification And now,man says no to sanctification What a shame! Who do we blame? Millions struggle and hustle without aim Life!Oh Life!Is surely vain I wander out of my state of boredom And ask, Why have we devalued our values? Why has man left out the Holy tracks? Where are the traces of love? Where are the traces of hope? Why is mankind "BAREFOOTED".
