Desolate

Desolate

Since you slept

Desolate

For he wept

Desolate

Clear away, empty streets

Desolate

City’s destruction, you will see

Desolate, desolate, desolate

How much more shall you forget

Many time I’ve spoken, you forget

Spoken to those I'VE chose to remind you

Together we work to uplift man

Follow no man, father speaks softly

Lean on me & I’ll give your eyes to see,

A mind which understand

Desolate is when you turn on me

Tragic ending if this were the false prophets

Continue sending broken to a broken city

Let us come now, unit with one another

Like a community we become, a light with another

Separation is desolate

Unable to be stable or protect

Desolate

Since you slept

Father, voice is still far away, but still weeps

Hoping his children who

In these streets got stripped, can no longer play

Will find peace,

Peace given is peace from him,

For letting him in, let’s begin

To expose foes who tell lies to our children

Authorize power trips, strips younger generation’s lips

News foretells, false news which sells

These dark days are the end of days,

Now our hell

Depicts story’s already replayed

Prophets told to speak messages of warning

How many escaped hell to see sun rise

The next morning, here is a warning

Desolate, desolate, desolate

Dead to all fools who abandoned wisdom

What to do about the world we live in

Speak what’s with you, you told me

It’s the only thing that doesn’t become

Desolate, desolate

It’s the truth, power, grace, mercy, love

Within you, which I gave you to give to another

Desolate, desolate= your city

I seek a prophet to represent

Do as I say before it goes

Desolate
