Waiting For God

Waiting for God to show upWe're keeping our fingers crossedCan't seem to make sense of all of this madnessWaiting for God to show up(On and on, on and onOn and on, on and on)Look what they did to her boyAnd nobody's blinking an eyeShe's choking on sadness with no hope for justiceJust look what they did to her boyDid she get lost in the rains?Or was there a lockdown at school?Maybe the ice cracked and swallowed the house upOr did they get caught in the fires?(On and on, on and onOn and on, on and on)All this talk of faithThe power of all our prayersMeanwhile kids playing video gamesThey fall but they don't get upWho have we become?What do we do now?The waving of our flagsAnd tears won't bring them backWaiting for God to show upWe're keeping our fingers crossedSmiling at fireworks that light all our skies upWhile black boys get shot in the backWere they caught riding their bikeOr guilty of walking alone?I can't seem to make sense of all of this madnessJust waiting for God, keep waiting for God to show up(On and on, on and on...)Oh God (It goes)Who art in HeavenWho art in Heaven, comeStand with us (It goes)May your will be doneOn Earth as it is in Heaven(... on and on)
