Doomed By a Mystery

Spoken of throughout history,
  history of a great mystery.
 
Mankind chose to divide and fight,
  still choosing to fight than share
  what's right.

But, a voice has always spoken,
  to remind us of this mystery
  a mystery that warns mankind
  through twists and signs.

Signs to choose the right path,
  a path that gives hope, hope and
  not despair in a world still divided
  with little care.

From Africa to Rome, many still
  without food and a home.

Nations torn by politics, religion
  and race, at a destructive pace.

Are we doomed by this mystery, a mystery
  with an option from  biblical history?

Was Rome ashamed of Christ's race,
  got mankind embracing Cesare Borgia's face
  Borgia's portray a tragedy for the  human race.
