Have Patience

Feeling bad, that isn't good The world's not functioning as it should Too much selfishness and greed Too many hungry mouths to feed Some have too much Most too little Has life become like a game of skittles The person who throws the ball And watches as the skittles fall Make sure they hold this power tight And works for self with all their might Until the day of reckoning comes When they won't be the one who beats the drum Then God who watches overall The Almighty controls both man and ball The chosen ones will have eternal peace It's the corrupt ones that will be deceased
