The Evil Feild
I raise my head early in the morning toward the north
Watching the early morning sun set
The evil of mankind rises with the sun setting
To the North, South, East and west.
The world is surrounded by evil
And the evil dwells in the heart of men
I cried out from the North, for help
I lifted my voice from the South, for rescue
I shouted aloud From the East, for justice
I screamed in pain and agony from the West, for mercy
Brothers Killing brothers to acquire wealth
Sisters killing sisters for the sake of having a good home
Kidnapping of children for rituals
Father rapping daughters for lust of the flesh
Mother’s prostitutes to enjoy the present temporary pleasure of life
Someone to lean on turns out to be someone seeking your life for money rituals
The best of your friends turns out to be the worse of your enemy
I have learn to cry no more, for the evil doer governs the world
I cry no more! I cry no more!! I cry no more!!!
