God Fly Me As Far As the Eyes Can See

God fly me as far as the eyes can see so I can leave this world of stolen smiles, wicked fears, and fallen tears...

Where the sounds of sad cries have pierce the eyes of so many lives have drained them dry

You see me, I pray that I fly among the heavenly highs, away from hidden hate and lies, enviness in disguise, favortism of races and unjust places, with eyes of plotting faces in a world of such disgrace

But still I sit back and wonder when will it change

When will the young mind of ours start to use our brain instead of pointing our fingers in blame

God fly me as far as the eyes can see so I can leave this world of steriotypical backgrounds and ghetto hooded crack grounds...

Where the streets sounds are no longer cocked rounds of pop sounds leaving people dropped down from shot rounds

God fly me as far as the eyes can see so I can leave this world of misery
