    QUEST 4 RIGHTEOUSNESS

    Willing 2 die 4 righteous ideals
    How many cosmic laws must
    Those bereft of faith steal
    2 heal
    Wounds caused by their inner-hatred
    Love is life and life is love
    Yet,when the walls of our safe haven crumble
    We push and shove
    2 find a exit from the riot brewing
    In our minds
    Where once I was blind
    Now I see
    But faith ain't so Amazing
    If I'm constantly
    Scanning my periphery
    4 an enemy
    In the midst of righteousness
    How has it come 2 this?
    The power fists of the 60's and 70's raised
    Now leaving me dazed
    And confused
    Abused
    Despite my fervent appeals
    4 righteous ideals
    How many Sacred Laws must be repealed
    By those bereft of faith in attempts 2 conceal
    The tru intentions
    The demonic inner-visions
    Of their desecrated minds
    Love is lost if the cost is love
    When benevolent thoughts
    Constantly rub
    Against the coarse fabric
    Of havoc
    I tried 2 launch my cosmic ship
    The outer shell wasn't fully equipped
    2 embark upon a spiritual trip
    I couldn't know nor predict
    My G.P.S would condradict
    The flight plan
    Such is the folly of a righteous man
    I landed on the dark side of the moon
    Communication could not resume
    Until I was back on line
    Life support systems appeared 2 be fine
    So I sent current 2 the navigational adjusters
    Quick mental countdown
    I fired the thrusters
    How could I have known
    My outer shell had developed corrosion
    Hit up You Tube and watch the explosion
    Of my righteousness again and again
    NASA didn't even notify
    My next of kin
