One Man
One man comes with long hair
And ask them to believe
But they plot to prosecute him
Cause he see a den of thieves
One man comes from god
They nail him to the cross
Now for the sins of some
We all feels the lost
But that man will come again
A promise he made to humanity
And his words are very clear
Behold I come quickly
One man hears a voice
From the angel Gabriel
And to the world
A holy book was revealed
Bringing peace and tolerance
But wicked lives with out shame
Committing acts of terror and violence
And every one gets the blame
This man writes this poem
To bring these facts to the blind
Hoping they will see it clear
And treat each other kind
Some men use their powers
To take away women’s right
Some use the name of religion
To start wars to fight
Some men give guns to children
To go and kill other men
When they should be in school
Carrying a book and pen
Some men die in foreign lands
In war their hearts regrets
While in their own country
They’re too young to buy cigarettes
Message to all these men
Who to hide behind god’s name
You will enter the gates of hell
And forever burn in the flame
Better days are coming
So let’s join hands as we wait
And say a prayer together
And respect each other’s faith
