Analysis of Increase the Peace



Here I come people let me do my part to try to reach each and everybody's heart let's increase to peace and stop the war brothers and sisters that's not take it no more stop The killing and put your weapons down we don't need the mess that is going around there's a lot of work to do so let's start today let's try to be quick no more delay I'm sitting here thinking so many lost souls and people try to tell me James that's the way life goes well put your thinking caps on James is taking you to school it's like the good book said you don't want to be a fool right now my heart is hurting do you want to know why when I look at this world it just makes me cry one minute you're here and the next you're gone it's like Marvin Gaye said what's going on how do I feel right now I don't know my mind is wondering and I'm moving kind of slow I asked the Lord how long will he let this mess go to one until he returns or until we're dead and gone we got kids killing kids everyday in the streets while their parents is out working trying to make ends meet priority comes and priority goes but in a lot of people's priorities there's a lot of holes we got kids on the corners both day and night selling drugs to one another that's just not right the kids have nowhere to play and that hurts my heart a people let's give the kids back there are parks cops are finding bodies almost everywhere. They're killing one another and they just don't care. Do you remember when our soldiers was up in the Gulf we all came together in love why shut that off if a man loves a woman and a woman a man why bringing their race I don't understand. Let's get on our knees and ask God above to please send down some of his godly love.
