I Believe
In God's name be merciful
truth is a powerful sword
striking home facts to the bone
what is poor and innocent blood
being spilled upon this earth for
A shame and disgrace
ashes of joy dripping salt wounds
children of our future generations
Brothers and sisters love acts
out of the common peoples destiny
beyond this planet
good sings warmly out
I say one voice among many
on the same level thinking cap
in a perfect balance in a nutshell
our earth is tilting upside down wars
Straight from the deepest axis
part of who I am
It cries in the shame out
of our planet evolves
sickness out of ashes
we are made from dust
It begins telling the heart direction
which pathway to take into a safety zone
for families sake peace and stability
what is right and wrong
courage is the truth
It flies with wings justice in the end
That will open the gates planting seeds
to the blind crawling in the darkness faceless
fools nowhere to hide enough is enough
We have a voice that can be heard
cruelly ground down by rich and powerful entities
raising volume howling growls teeth clenched
Standing inside the light of beauty
one which can break chains of bondage
those held down by silence in a soul
whispers fire upwards
No one is a slave above or below another human being
we have only one Master I bow to the holy seal
he commands the ship of freedom to speak
I defend the families right to council a majority view
