Save My Soul
save my soul
what a confusion
what a world
how many questions
do I need to ask
those I asked
brought confusion
the answer is clear
but they can not
say it in a confuse world
oh what a confusion
what a world
oh God
save my soul
save my soul
what a confusion
what a world
nowadays I woke up
to see the streets in confusion
babies are hungry
mama is busy spreading
her legs to feed the hungry
babies
cos daddy is miles far away
in diaspora also
struggling to feed the wives
and babies
no real family time together
cos their world has turned
their time apart
from a the streets of confusion
in a world of confusion
what a confusion
what a world
oh God
save my soul
save my soul
what a confusion
what a world
in our cities
calamities are now usual
as normal
tribalism and religion
is burning our towns
destroying Christians
killing priest
murdering children
rapping women
raising flags of hate
bleeding brutal isolation
what a confusion
what a world
oh God
save my soul
save my soul
what a confusion
what a world
how much troubles
do we need more
for them to understand
what enough means
cos with their obvious evils
we are straight to doom
in their nets of confusion
we are trapped
no wonder we still
fight for freedom
in a world of confusion
what a confusion
what a world
oh God
save my soul
save my soul
what a confusion
what a world
so I pray oh God
protect the sons
of men
cos the days
get deeper and deeper in this
our generation of today
too many lost sheep's
are more obviously obvious
they are only lead
but not thought
they are just guided
but not protected
they are busy
with out moral values
only cos we live
in a confuse global madness
what a confusion
what a world
oh God
save my soul
