The Other War

Contributed by THUGGIN4REAL on Thursday, 3rd March 2005 @ 08:53:18 PM in AEST
Topic: Patriotic



MY PRAYERS GO OUT TO THE WAR IN IRAQI
BUT THERE IS A WAR IN AMERICA
SO WHERE ARE OUR SOILDERS AT
I'M NOT FUNDED BY THE GOVERMENT
SO I CANT WEAR OUR FLAG
INSTEAD I WEAR THE FLAG OF MY GANG
BUT DOES THAT MAKE ME BAD
IF AMERICA IS SO GREAT
THEN WHY DO THEY DISCRIMINATE
LET ME TAKE YOU ON A JOURNAY THROUGH MY HOOD
SO YOUR MIND CAN START TO MARINATE
CHILDERN ARE BEING KILLED
BUT THE POLICE CANT FIND THEIR KILLERS
DRUGS ARE BEING DEALT
BUT THE STREETS ARE NOT THE DEALERS
GUNS ARE BEING SOLD OUT ON THE STREETS
SO NOW THE GOVERNMENT WANTS CONTROL
BUT IT WAS THE GOVERNMENT THAT PROVIDED US WITH THEM
HOW COME WE CANT PROSECUTE AND SENTENCE THEM
WITHOUT A CHANCE FOR PAROLE
PEOPLE GETTING LOCKED UP FOR THE CHOICES THEY HAD MADE
BUT WHAT ABOUT OUR PRESIDENT'S DECISIONS..........
OH, BUT THATS OKAY
I RESPECT THE BELIEFS THE WORLD HAS ON THIS WAR
BUT DO YOU EVER EXAMINE ON WHAT IS GOING ON IN
AMERICA'S MODERAN CIVIL WAR

I know that this is going on in the world and yet I sit in my home with my family and do nothing. I am ashamed of myself. I love people. I can't think of anyone really able to do anything about what is going on in the world today but one and that is GOD. There is a scripture in the bible. that says that if you seek him. live for him. he will heal your land. let me quote it....
2 Chronicles 7:14 (King James Version)
14If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.
This tells me that if people seek God and live for him. life around them would be a better place to live. CHOICES people make. not God's fault if they choose not to follow him.

I know this has so much truth to it, And we have to hold on tight to our faith, and hope that one day we just may live in a perfect world,
