Earthly Cries; Heavenly Ears
LoaderProcessing...

Streets flooded with painful tears

Pitiful masses wearing pitiful stares, 

utopian wishes for blissful years

Hope; becomes fragments of a broken glass.

Did our cries get to heaven's gate? 

 

An expanding loophole of vanity

Slow silenced subjugation of strong spirits

who dares to bell the cat of chivalry? 

externally stoic, internally livid

Did our cries get to heaven's gate? 

 

Widened mouths of wailing hearts 

in unity with forlorn faces,

Weakened hands of struggling days,

legs wearing sneakers without laces.

Did our cries get to heaven's gate? 

 

 

Uncertain paths scream our name

the ladder to mercy remains a tale

religion calls out to us

but has religion also changed? 

Did our cries get to heaven's gate? 

 

Are we to continue swimming

in this lagoon of unending sorrow? 

are we to keep living 

in this wasteland of hopeless tomorrows? 

did our cries get to heaven's gate?

 

The ears have heard our cries

As their eyes have seen,

how pain has tailored our tails 

a unified fight to fill the stomach

But who can stomach the pain of fighting for all? 

did our cries get to heaven's gate? 

 

Self-destruction honed to a fault

Cries unto celestial bodies become the norms

As we are governed into a mess,

With hope for a Messiah's help

but to prise happiness into our lives 

no one is willing to pay the price

Will our cries get to heaven?
