Ballad of Injustice

Mama birthed that sweet sweet baby
Told her it would be okay
Cuz' it won't be tomorrow
Quite as wicked as today
See daddy fled that sweet sweet lover
Daddy left that girl alone
Watch mama's wings they're growing stronger
While her heart it turns to stone

To stone, to stone
To stone, to stone

Mama's hands are folded gently
Cuz' her baby doesn't know
Of the terrors of the universe
And the power that it holds
So she shines up her defenses
She's protector of her home
But oh my dear you're far too late
Baby's heart has turned to stone

To stone, to stone
To stone, to stone

Shame on this place oh you praise the sinful
Shame on this place leave the troubled to die
I won't drink the waters of injustice
Won't burn with you in that pit of fire
These crowds they sing of crucifixion
While they suffer their own demise
Cuz' we are strong when we stand together
Easily defeated, defeated when we divide

I pray for healing
I pray for peace
Oh Lord I pray, all this senseless hate would cease
I pray for wisdom
I pray for strength
I pray I see the day we're humble enough to repent
Fold my hands gently
I say prayers for Mother Earth
I pray her children find a way to soothe a way to soothe the hurt
I pray for healing
I pray for peace
Oh Lord I pray, all this senseless hate would cease
I pray for wisdom
I pray for strength
I pray I see the day we're humble enough to repent
Fold my hands gently
I say prayers for Mother Earth
I pray her children find a way to soothe a way to soothe the hurt
