HATRED

 

I made the journey, from the mount

I came in search of a dream,

I came to learn the ways of you

Offered milk but you wanted the cream.

A simple boy from the end of the world,

A boy with the stars in his eyes,

I came on a search for the meaning of life

An eagle in blue, cloudless skies.

I once heard a story, in long ago times

Of a life in a world bold and new,

Where the simple word LOVE was the number one rule

And people were honest and true.

 

I found your world of hatred, hatred

Lust and greed for money, money;

Life in your world's not so funny

Where's the land of milk and honey?

Will I ever find the answer

Hatred growing like a cancer,

When will skies by sunny, sunny?

 

I see the greed in worried faces,

Hear the children crying,

I see the anger, war and hunger,

Hearts of people slowly dying,

Ladies caring not for beauty

Children born in deep despair,

Men in deepest, dark depression,

Where's the love that should be there?

 

I made my journey, now I'm returning

Back to the mountain I return,

Far from you on your suicide run,

I don't want to witness when all of you burn.
