Social commentary on global situations that highlights the inner struggle to be a better world citizen.

lyrics

Yesterday, I met a boy, musta been about three or four.
His mother disappeared in yet another civil war.
The war is far from done and the boy don’t stand a chance.
He’ll probably be raised with a rifle in his hands.

HIs eyes, they said “don’t cry for me.
No, don’t cry for me.
I don’t want your pity, I don’t want your shame.
Your thoughts and prayers don’t get rid of my pain.
No, don’t cry me.”

Today I met a man, a ragged refugee.
Who used to own some land, a couple dozen olive trees.
Well, he’s all out of hope and his rocks don’t stand a chance,
Against the bulldozers and tanks that have razed the Promised Land.

HIs eyes, they said “don’t cry for me.
No, don’t cry for me.
I don’t want your pity, I don’t want your shame.
Your thoughts and prayers don’t get rid of my pain.
No, don’t cry me.”

They asked me why God didn’t choose them.
They asked me why God didn’t care.
They asked me if it’s a battle worth losing.
They asked me if they said the wrong prayers.

With a blank stare, I don’t have the answers.
A blank stare was all could give.
A blank stare, well that don’t ask the right questions.
A blank stare, that ain’t no way to live.
