Being As An Ocean

Being As An Ocean - Death’s Great Black Wing Scrapes The Air lyrics

rate me

We shout up at the sky

Until our mouths are bloody and dry

Screaming out at a god that seems to be blind

To the suffering of us here below; those pushed aside

Look around and witness the weight of this darkness

I can assure you that ignorance is not bliss

And simply because we've adorned our eyes with such arrogance

Does not mean the unspeakable will cease

Wicked men hoarding necessities

While their fellow men die of sickness and disease

Our children are still starving

Doubled over in pain from the grumbling

Dying loved ones whit her and fade

The person we knew stripped away

All we love will fade

All we love is stripped away

Men killing their dearest in a fit of rage

Instead of putting the past behind, turning a new page

Mothers drown their babies in their sleep

As a reprieve cause they don't know the next time they'll eat

We still defile and abuse the innocent

Like items to be sold or owned

Slavery and prostitution is no place for a nine year old

So rage, cry out at the angry sky

Let the emotion fall from your eyes

I tell you the truth

YHWH rages with you

He hears your frantic ...

Believe me when I say, "He is not some distant thing!"

If you're quiet for a while, you might just hear Him breathe

He's stood at the bedside of the lowly

Shoulders heaving, His head in His hands

Grieving with a Father's heart, come to retrieve another ... lamb

It's up to us to hold each others' dignity

Recognize we've chosen the wrong enemy

Hate, ignorance, and inhumanity are what we should be battling

Now's the time for knowledge

Now's the time for Truth

Humanity has already suffered so much abuse

We must take responsibility, and do away with apathy

Unlearn society's teachings

To be blind and selfish

Because what you must learn

Is that the problem is us
