I Don'T Feel Safe Here Anymore

I don't feel safe here anymore

I don't feel safe here anymore
Lot of people dying with innocent souls
One person after another, their deaths keeps coming in row
God! I feel so low 

How can you kill ya own bro?
Thought we was supposed to let the love flow
Now we can't even sleep with our eyes closed 
Because we gotta watch how the night goes

Where's the love of liberty our teachers posed?
I really feel like we've failed
But that's the seed we sold 
Hold ya friends and families close
You don't know what's at the end of the road 

It's sad but this is the path we chose 
Now we gotta live with this sore 
I don't feel safe here anymore
Lord. Please help me to sail

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
