Woes and Wonders
Show me a city full of
happiness,
Then i will show you the
effect of their weakness.
Show me a man who is full
of himself,
Then i will show you why
he's a fool to himself.
Show me your success
today,
And i will show you your
mistakes of yesterday.
Show me a community not
far from the mountain,
Then i will show you why
their security is certain.
Show me a holy man,
Then i will show you why
he's called a human.
Show me a man who is not
afraid of death,
Then i will show him the
theory of birth.
Show me an ocean of
misery,
Then i will show you how to
swim in victory.
Tell me the meaning of '
STOP ',
Then i will show you the
way to the top.
Show me your best friend,
Then i will show you where
your dreams will end.
Show me a good and caring
heart,
And i will show you why it
hasn't been torn apart.
Show me your hall of pain,
Then i will show you all
what u've gain.
Show me an exceptional
reader,
Then i will show you a great
leader.
Show me a way to financial
prosperity,
Then i will show you a way
to heavenly security.
Show me a great man of all
time,
Then i will show you his
footprint on the sand of
time.
Show me a problem you
can't solve,
Then i will show you why
you haven't use the
solution called love.
Show me a world full of
fantasy,
Then i will show you the
pain behind a life full of
ecstasy.
Show me a kingdom built
with wrath,
Then i will show you how
much it is worth.
Show me a man with a
problem free life,
Then i will show you why
he hasn't gotten a wife.
Show me all of earth's
pleasure,
Then i will show you why
heaven is the place to be
beyond all measure
