Struggling 2011

This is based on a series of songs I've written over the years. This time, I think we're all struggling.

No one believes in hope anymore

No one thinks positive these days

We've been shaken to the core

Exposed to our negative ways

I bow my head and pray

Fives times a day

To push the Jinn away

And keep the Devil at bay

No one cares about one another

Rape their sisters, kill their brothers

Everyone wants more wealth

To spite their own health

I struggle to survive

To keep my head above water

I can't falter

My son needs me alive

We're killing ourselves

Empty bookshelves

Ignoring our history

Blinded by the TV

All I want is a life

I can smile about

Nice kids and a beautiful wife

I can talk about

Reviews

this would be a great song; a life changing meaning lyric to mentally shift us back to a place where something belongs....
