forgiving the road to redemption


God always forgives
If we ask Him to hear our pleading
God never stays away
We know Him to be there

Yet men in power
They go crazy with it
They kill to keep their seats
Showing compassion
way back down the ladder

Men in power
They cultivate fear
The rules of race and religion
The darkness falls on the chair
They don't see it
They keep denying

Even when they read
The Holy Books in their hands
Men in power
They think they don't fall
But they do in time
In managing affairs
Know that taking lives
In whatever degree or law
It is a sin on the hands which move it
Each will be called to account
Taking a life without due compassion
