Silent Prayers

silent prayers
common sense
drives a sensitivity
in me 
so I see what I feel 
deep inside of me 
it touches my soul 
and if I have to cry 
I chose to pour 
it on out in my silent 
through my 
silent prayers

silent prayers
I don't need to shout
to God to hear me 
if he gave me a heart 
he sure will always listen
to it beat 
cos I can feel his touch 
in nature 
it gaves my soul a healing
that I need pass on to life 
so when you see my silent
sometimes am on with
silent prayers

silent prayers
nowadays the world 
looks bright on the eyes 
that only see themselves
on the eyes that see yet 
remains blind in their sight
they don't see humanity
yet they need it 
they are sort sighted on the 
part of truth yet they need 
to hear it
the world is bitter 
yet a sugar Cain for 
them
cos if they don't devalue
they got no profit 
and that bleeds down on us 
yes us the people 
no wonder I have this 
silent prayers

silent prayers
I don't need a temple
to be truthful in life
I don't need a holy chapel 
to define good from bad 
the feeling says a lot 
even when we remain blind
in reality 
forgive me God 
when am weak 
when I curse 
when I teach 
when I give
when I see
cos all I see 
bring me always 
speaking with you 
always in my
silent prayers

am just a human
a flesh  bone and blood
