Power
Power, it's influence can be seen all over
Can you see it's effect on society?
Diminishing my hopes for I don't know whose who in this game
Have to tie a rope on my foot as I walk into the forest
It would be my guide when I get lost on the way
For this reason I don't want to hold onto this monster
People loss their minds and dignity to power and it's respect
Power, tell me what you feed to people
For I would want to have a taste of that meal that's hidden
For am curious enough, can you see my desire?
Look at how our leaders change when they taste power
Who placed the devil on the sit that's the most powerful?
The lies of our leaders are breaking my heart and our vision for tomorrow
It's true, guns don't fire bullets, it's the human finger that pulls the trigger
Mothers are crying for the loss of their children
Their sons and daughters are on the battle line risking their lives for a country
A country that doesn't give them a hope for peace
Child soldiers are begin recruited to serve the desire of power
Is the pain worth? Are the tears we shed precious?
Our hearts are been dug deep with misery
Don't ever change for power, for it will break your soul
Who wrote the writings on the wall?
Let God's hand appear and write on the wall
So that we may get an interpreter
We see the letters but we don't get the message
We blind, for the facts are all over yet we ignore the damage
Are we fools of our intelligence?
Lets learn to make changes by our own decisions we make
