VOICES IN MY HEAD

 

I keep hearing voices in my head

I hear voices of children in the motherless home

Who doesn't know how it feels to be loved and hugged by a father

I hear voices of the innocents, locked and perishing in the prison

I hear voices of the poor, hustling and wailing on the street everyday

I hear voices of patients dying in the hospital due to neglects

I hear voices of virgins raped, molested and deprived of her womanhood

I hear voices of soldiers killed every day on the field fighting a war man can never win

I hear voices of a mother abused by her husband that's supposed to protect her in her home

I hear voices in the night of the many souls lost and buried in the grave

I hear voices of conscience of the oppressed afraid to speak up not to be maimed

I hear voices of a world polluted and destroyed by human for selfish interest and gain

I heard a voice tell me in my heart that if only man will believe

God is willing and able to give him an eternal joy and a new life to live
