Spiritual Forgivness
Can you hear the whisper?
Do you feel the words around you?
They speak though nobody can listen
Open your ears and maybe somebody will speak
Take the time to acknowledge the cry for help
And someday just maybe they may just listen to you to
Someday you may just end up another unheard whisper
Just another unheard unacknowledged whisper in the wind
But take the time to open up and realize nothing is always as it's heard
Our fathers can still whisper to us all and they do it as they watch
Still willing to listen still willing to hold their arms out to keep us strong
Even while we are tearing apart ignoring their calling from beyond their graves
Hoping we hear them as they tell us not to follow their mistakes
Whispering to us in hopes we at least once hear them cry out for help
But do you listen to the whisper or ignore them as though they were still alive
You can blame the yelling on your mistakes but we can never ignore the whisper forever
