Title: Freedoms Cost (give me some feedback)
Post by: LiL-Christian on June 06, 2005, 03:12:58 AM
The hunger for power, comes like a game
Which in the end, leaves it's mark behind
And today the world, it aint the same
Though our eyes are open, but our soul is still blind.


Today we remember, the past events
While reflecting, on this fulfilled prophecy
Thousands die, when one demands
To much power, becomes and atrocity.


But today is different, because we reflect
On heroes of the past
And there's heroes today, that we respect
Who are fighting, for freedom to last.


For that hunger for power, there's still no end
Innocent blood, continues to spill
And then we ask ourselves, while trying to understand
Why and for what, do we even kill?


Today we visit cemeteries, reminding ourselves
Of histories greatest disaster
When freedom was threatened, by evil itself
The world saw the works, of Hells greatest master.


We fight for sovereignty, but that's hard to see
Because of our selfish desire
For we think that dominant power, will set the world free
Instead it took so many lives, like a wild fire.


For many centures, we fought for peace
A peace that we can't even attain
And our lives aren't going, to rest at ease
Because the peace from God, we can't even contain.


The message here, is very clear
That I wish people, would just see
That putting your will first day after day, year after year
Aint gonna set you free.
