Where Is God
We say a prayer for the wild hearts kept in cages
But can they hear us?
Will he break the cages?
Will he make them be the real them?
He will let us lose the battle
But will he let us win the war?
He starts a conflict
To create peace
But where is he when we need him most?
Where is god now?
Our friends and family die
We watch people we don't know die for our country
Here's to loving life
But where is he when you hate your life?
Where is god now?
He is the emotions that you feel
He is the words that you speak
But where is he when you are emotionless, speechless
He is in every tear you cry
He is in everyone who dies
But where is god now?
Open heavens gates i ask
Saint Peter I give you just one last task
Open the gates and see god, I will
I see him and all is still
He says he is in us too
Where is god? you ask
Well, my dear friend, he is in both me and in you.
