The Mad Rush

They swarm the street like mad ants Scraping up all that the can find They are panic buying while some people are crying The people are anxious and they are moving in a rush Something is swirling in the air and it is causing the people to fear The mad rush is in the town And everyone is running around Trucks cars and van are rolling up and down the street Getting ready for the next episode to complete Big truck, little truck, big vans, little van expensive cars, cheap cars, And big wheels are rolling all over the town People are parading up and down the town Some well dressed and some wearing their afternoon best Anf the officers are driving around lookng like a frantic clown But the day continue to ride and celebrate its ultimate pride. I can feel the consciousness riding in While the people lament over their sins The restriction and the boundries, has made Everyone looked refined in these striking time Big robust men that are very hard to bend Trembelling on their feet and still trying to make sense of the sudden shock wave around They still cannot come to terms with this reality It hasn't reached their door steps yet, but Something gigantic is operating from within And it is singing a wonderful hymn The people are looking out of space and the hustlers are rushing to end the final race They are walking up and down the street To make every penny to buy food to eat And in the midths of the mad rush, a woman dressed in full white teased the crowd She had a serious warning that the misery has just began And warned the people of death and sickness upon the land "Jamaica has fallen some people will make it While the others will perish under it" she shouts Something is comming to the town So becareful where you are bound Your life will change, the game will change And prople will soon start running up and down in shame You must maintain a strong heart and fill your Mind with positive thinking or sing a nice hymn Enjoy the finer things in life And fill your days with joy and delight while you are alive And when the moment draws near you have nothing to fear This is different kind of war that we have never fought This a new kind of war that caught everyone by surprise It is a war that will keep everyone thinking all night. It is the beginning of world war three in the third degree The ships are lined up and the planes are standing by to deliver much needed supplies. The health war has broken out No weapon just sanitizers to wash your hands.
