God…please

If You’re there…

Do You still look at us?

⸻

Skies full of smoke, cities built on lies

Children learning fear before they learn why

We traded truth for clicks and applause

Built golden idols, called it laws

Blood on the news, silence in prayer

Hands in the air but nobody there

We scream Your name when storms appear

But forget You when the sun is clear

We broke the earth and blamed the rain

Wrote holy words then lived in vain

Turned temples into markets of pride

Then asked why Heaven feels so quiet

⸻

Are You watching from the other side?

Do You weep when we divide?

We’re calling out, voices cracked and wide

“Where are You? Don’t let us die.”

If You’re listening, hear the cry

We’re bruised, we’re lost, we’re asking why

We built this fire, we feel the heat

Please don’t leave us in the streets.

⸻

Corruption dressed in tailored grace

Power smiling in holy places

We post verses but curse in breath

Praise on Sunday, profit on death

We hurt each other, then look above

Asking Heaven to send us love

But love was written in every line

We just crossed it out with pride

Still there’s a child kneeling at night

Still there’s a candle holding light

Still there’s a whisper in the noise

A fragile hope we can’t destroy

⸻

If You’re silent…

Teach us to listen.

If You’re distant…

Show us the distance is us.

⸻

Are You watching? We’re on our knees

Not for riches — just to breathe

We’re not perfect, we’re just weak

Still Your children, still we seek

If mercy falls like morning rain

Let it wash this world of pain

We’re screaming up through fear and flame —

Don’t give up on us again.
