HARD TO FATHOM

STILL HARD TO FATHOM,
THE UTTER SHOCK OF IT ALL,
TERRORISTS BOMBED NEW YORK,
AND WASHINGTON D.C.,
I WATCHED THE TRADE TOWERS FALL.

AIRPLANES FULL OF FUEL,
FOR CROSS COUNTRY FLIGHT,
USED AS WEAPONS OF DESTRUCTION,
AMERICA SPENT A SLEEPLESS NIGHT.

DO NOT BE ANGRY WITH GOD,
FOR HE DID NOT COMMIT THIS ACT,
IT WAS SPIRITUALLY SICK PEOPLE,
THEY CHOSE FREE WILL, AND THAT’S A FACT.

AND PLEASE DO NOT BE RACIST,
BECAUSE IT WILL BE TO NO AVAIL,
THIS IS NOT A RACES RESPONSIBILITY,
AND RACISM IS DOOMED TO FAIL.

PRACTICE LOVE AND TOLERANCE,
IT STARTS HERE, RIGHT AT HOME,
LOVE ALL OF GOD’S CHILDREN,
NOT LEAVING AN UNTURNED A STONE.

I LOVE ALL MY BROTHER’S,
AND ALL MY SISTER’S ALIKE,
MAKES NO MATTER THEIR RELIGION,
AND SKIN TONE NO REASON TO FIGHT.

WE ARE ALL GOD’S CHILDREN,
TOGETHER WE MUST SURVIVE,
SO LET’S PRACTICE PRINCIPLES TOGETHER,
FOR PEACE ON EARTH, WE NOW MUST STRIVE.
