Life
Life has so many ups and downs
a world where drugs are taken
over our kids
where war is destroying
our country
where violence and crime
is taking over our
communities.
A world where children aren't
safe to play
and if you are a celebrity
with murder you can get away.
A world where people are
dying day by day, and you
can only ask the Lord to
show us the way.
A world where father figures
are few, and our children
are left not knowing
what to do.
A world where teachers can't
descpline, and don't get paid enough
to teach, where preachers need
to get out of the church and hit
the streets. They need to educate our
people and show them the way
teach them when they go to
a job interview, the proper
way to dress and what to say.
We need to stop judging
and start keeping each
other out, because isn't that
what God perfect plan all
about. I take a look at life every day
and judge not, I just wish in my world
the bad guys weren't the cops.
