He Lives In Me
where does God lives
up there or within me
if there is God in the sky
why can't he hear my cry
why can't he feel my pain
is it because he has eyes but can't see
he has ears but can't hear
why do I live in constant fear
if he is a good judge
why is his world unfair
may be there is no reason
in living justly
being truthfull and living uprightly
why should he discriminate against me
why can't he save me from slavery
if he is my protector
evil men becomes richer and stronger
may be living a positive life
is my failure
who will be a good door keeper
is it God or my neighbor
if people around me
are not truthful and helpful
why won't life be
so painful and stressful
