| How is it possible to hate someone you never met
|
| In waiting rooms of hospitals
|
| A babies soon to measure his worth
|
| When through the door
|
| He feels no warmth of his fathers hand
|
| And earth becomes the floor he learns to crawl on
|
| Till an honest man is upright
|
| He hug tight to insecurity
|
| The fear of being vulnerable steers him from his purity
|
| And runs him from the only place within
|
| That knew his proper name
|
| The secret space he lived inside he grew
|
| Until the doctor came
|
| And smacked him till he started breathing
|
| Crash, into the art of reason
|
| Laughing is an act of treason
|
| Blasphemy to start believing
|
| And after he has had his season marked
|
| By every heartless lesion
|
| Hardened by his Eden
|
| In his garden he will starve this evening
|
| Mothers I see our struggle
|
| Fathers I hear our trouble
|
| Brothers we will recover
|
| Sisters we all need each other
|
| Mothers I see our struggle
|
| Fathers I hear our trouble
|
| Brothers we will recover
|
| Sisters we all need each other
|
| Love, with out it we just skin and bones
|
| Love, we crowd it with the things we own
|
| Love, we doubt it till we bring it home
|
| Love, we shout it till the kingdoms known, sing it now
|
| Love, what the powers that be try to keep us from
|
| Love, in the hour of need when you feel alone
|
| Love, to shower the seeds till we see them grown
|
| Love, I’m out on me knees until we see it shown
|
| Mothers I see our struggle
|
| Fathers I hear our trouble
|
| Brothers we will recover
|
| Sisters we all need each other
|
| Mothers I see our struggle
|
| Fathers I hear our trouble
|
| Brothers we will recover
|
| Sisters we all need each other
|
| I take a moment of his time
|
| To hold him and give mind
|
| To all he relives
|
| Find the hole he re-digs
|
| Bind his soul to a thick line
|
| The safety behind it
|
| The stone would have hit
|
| Eyes don’t know where to find it
|
| When drawn in sand
|
| A psalm to man emptying every palm as hands
|
| Are balled into fits as they call to accuse
|
| But they fall from the list
|
| That they’ve drawn from the news
|
| And we all hypocrites if we saw what we choose
|
| Over life, over love, over dawn, over You
|
| And they ask what He’s building and why does He bother
|
| A map for us children to find our own Father
|
| Mothers I see our struggle
|
| Fathers I hear our trouble
|
| Brothers we will recover
|
| Sisters we all need each other |
