Fear

I’m scared for my child, lord, for her mother
For what you people wanna do to one another
For the water, for the trees --
Man, I’m scared of pollution, of disease
And I’m scared that my child won’t live a long time
With your murderin', rape and your drug money crime;
Scared of the drugs stealing youth from the young
Well their life story; well that’ll never be sung
And I pray my child lives happy and long
And I hope she never will sing this song
And I pray, my child, live happy and long, Lord
And I hope she never will sing this song
Well as some men talk of peace now -- good intentions
I’m only gonna look at his latest inventions
Hope I’m wrong, Heard I’m right --
Man he could end it all tonight
I know upon this night another village is burning;
Child lose their life as their first sun is turning;
Leaders of holocaust stand so tall;
Man it looks like there ain’t no value in life at all…
Well I pray my child will live happy and long, Lord
And I hope she never will sing this song
So lord please forgive me if my fear offend now --
It’s just so hard to transcend now
Cause when i ran away from my bad dream
The child inside was too scared and screamed
