TIME





Who stole away time? 
I seem to have lost track of time 
Can't find dreams seeking for
Don't know where I am 

Please can you give me back my time?
I just want to find the things that makes me happy 
Live in a world encircled with hope 
And blessed with love 

Where I can find angels walking by 
Trees planted and roses watered 
With all the time I have in the world 
Appreciated and treasured

NO MORE







No more sorrow, no more weeping
No more shedding blood on the street
No more hatred, no more strife
No more destruction on innocent life

No more guns and war
No more homelessness for the poor
No more neglecting the well-being of a child
No more tears in a mother's eye

No more grave in our backyard
No more hiding in the dark
No more scarcity of food and water
No more conflict unresolved on our border

No more hope and shelter broken
No more heroes forgotten
No more pain and suffering
No more lies and deception

No more famine and starvation
No more false doctrines and religion
No more pride and downfall
No more nightmares at nightfall

STILL WATER




Still water come into my heart
Come ease the burden of a repulsive heart
Its been difficult, life on my own
The flowers in my heart withered and gone


Man is prone to scarcity of love
The world's evolving each second
Depression staking the resourcefulness of life
The reason the world's depreciating instead


I have tried to think things through in my head
Its burdensome hearing voices weeping instead
I wish deeply for the heart to be calm
Someday, dreams alive will come
