Only God Forgives We Don'T
only god forgive we don't
we are not the curse
of all your crimes
we are not guilty
of all the deaths of
the innocent
dead on every streets
we are not the reason
why we are in poverty
all this time past
till now
is not by our making
that hard struggles is
always what is
left to survive
in our ghettos
is not our prayers
to live below
one dollar per day in Africa
no no no
we the People are
not guilty
and we wish if we are
to forgive those that
curse all this calamities
where will we start from
so that is not for human
but for God
only God forgives we don't
is not our dreams
to be slaves right
in our own land or abroad
is not our wish
to be neglected
by our leaders
our governments actions
before and now is
never our desire
oh is not our aims
to see our life's
this ugly in the
midst of plenty
I just wish God can
forgive them
for that is left for
him alone
only God forgives we don't
is not our wish
to be hopeless
is not our hope
to cope with
this brutal political
illusion of change
is not our fault
that they always
lie to us
I know they don't
understand life
where life is supposed
to lead us through a light
of love peace and happiness
so it does not make
us happy when we
always have to see
our love ones short gone
down six feet for nothing
oh God we can't forget
all this
so is hard for we to forgive
yes that is difficult for us
and if this is true then
only God can forgive
only God can forgive we don't
I wish it is easy to forgive
then our heart will have been
more lighter
everyday nowadays
our youths are on the run
so many end up on the high sea
so many got dried up at the
hot desert
in North Africa
oh is not our wish to run always
from home
is never in our hearts and minds
to live in wars
is so sad to see our homes on fire
all because some intelligent
human beings are
greedy heartless and so ignorant
of a simple truth
I just wish we could forget and
forgive
but all this calamities
is not of our making
and this means
only God can forgive we don't
