SOUL 2 SOUL


By the rivers we sat
Thinking of years gone
Hoping against hope
Praying for relief
Casted and trampled upon
No strength left to fight
On the altar we bled
For our insensitivity


Our blood the river washed not
Our pains the sound calmed not
Each passing day brought it
A bitter reminder of our past
If only we had known
Blinded not by sentiments
Maybe we would have sat
Round a table before enemies


River river drown us now
Squeeze this life from us
Let our lungs feel your cold
As you rush through us
Let not death come quietly
For we want to struggle one more time
Look at life once again
And apologize for the wrong we did


Yes we did wrong o river
Choosing yet another king
Now enroute Babylon are we
Pausing only by its rivers
Hope you'll recount this tale
Tell of a people so diversified
And had appointed blindly a king


**Can't continue... The words keep rushing in... Will stop right here...!**
