I DON'T BELIEVE

I don't believe I can't make it if it doesn't rain

I don't believe in life there is no gain

I don't believe I can't find true love

For God is watching over me from heaven above

I don't believe you and I are not meant to be

I don't believe in life there is no remedy

I don't believe tears can't wipe away our pain

For if you don’t work hard in life, success you can not attain

I don't believe the sun can be stopped from shining

I don't believe the world can stop me from dreaming

I don't believe I can someday loose a smile

For every time the sun is out, she blessed me with her smile

I don't believe breakups can necessary end a relationship

I don't believe in failures, not when I have breath in me

I don't believe I can't write myself a story

For when God made man, He blessed him with His kiss and glory

I don't believe I can be lonely with a scar

I don't believe the clouds would one day be without a star

I don't believe in circumstances, for we can create our own luck

For the world is huge, everything a man needs he can make up

I don't believe you are not special

I don't believe in a war there is no survival

I don't believe every child don't have a father

For there is something about you which makes the world brighter

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

BROKEN TRUST

On the night of July, the moon was lonely

For I let my emotion got the best of me

Selfishly, I let the love of a dear one slipped

My heart was weak; she caused an eternal trust to weep

I broke the promises made to you

I was callous and guilty of my sins in full

For this I can never forgive myself

My heart is convicted and confined in a cell

I get lost in heaven whenever am in your arms

For you were blessed with the hands of the gods

With you my dreams were all coming true

I am sorry despite this I took you for a fool

In my heart, I lighted a thousand candles praying

I couldn't sleep for the better half of me is dying

I am bleeding inside every second spent without you

I can't make it on my own in a world without you

Please can you spare me your heart?

Give me a little chance to make things right

I don't mind if I had to be a maid for you

The stars in my heart are no longer bright as it used to

Can you please take me to be your woman again?

I want the cloud between us to forever rain

So we can sail on the sea together the rest of our lives

I am not an angel, but I can be the sky in your life

For a broken trust will I do everything in my heart to mend in a way

I still want to be the one to make you smile everyday

I will give up everything I've got in this world away

If it will cost me another life to be in your arms again today
