That’s Why….

I happened to see this video today and thought, although not everyone prays, there are many people going through the things mentioned in this video (lyrics). I am including the lyrics for those that may not want to watch the video or care for the group. I, myself, pray; I believe in it and that is my choice-but that doesn’t mean I expect you to nor do I ask you to.. 🙂

But in these lyrics, in this song, it touches on so many things happening in our world these days. Bullying, babies having babies, people just.not.getting.along. Drama is everywhere! But what if each person took it upon themselves to be the best they could be? What if each day you said, did, gestured something nice to another human being?

Man on the TV’s gone insane, everybody’s just laughing

People ’cross the world holding on
The earth caved in, the ocean came down crashing
My neighbor lost his house ’cause he can’t find a job
Don’t you dare pledge allegiance, don’t you dare speak of God
Speak of God
Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh!

Now I’m begging for forgiveness
I wanna make a difference even in the smallest way
I’m only one person, but I can feel it working
I believe in better days
That’s why I pray

Some stupid video posted as a joke, somebody’s life gets ruined
Out of everything we can create
Where is the cure to keep us safe from losing
Babies having babies ’cause their parents are always gone
Somehow we have forgotten how to make a house a home
How to make a house a home
Oh! Oh! Yeah! Yeah!

I’m begging for forgiveness, I wanna make a difference
Even in the smallest way
I’m only one person, but I can feel it working
I believe in better days
That’s why I pray, yeah
That’s why I pray, yeah

These demons from my past haunt me every night
And I just can’t get through it
If I could forget them on my own, I’ll let go and just move on
But heaven knows I am only human

And that’s why I pray, yeah yeah
That’s why I pray, I pray, I pray, I pray

Yes I’m begging for forgiveness (I’m begging for forgiveness)
I just wanna make a difference (Just wanna make a difference)
I believe (I believe) in better days
That’s why I pray
