labyrinths of faith


forgive me lord for saying this,
but i sometimes think you don't exist
or if you do, you just don't care
my lord, are you really there??


why do crimes cover this earth?
is death an answer to every birth?
i know dying is part of this world,
but why do you take the good ones first??


why let man kill in your name?
are you concerned or playing a game?
i believe you have every power there is
why don't you use it to bring us peace?


i am just human, a sinful child
but i just can't help but ask you why
forgive me lord for doubting your plans
save my soul with your nail pierced hands...



lady of tears

a life of heartaches is what she's had,
most of the time she's crying, sad,
but when it seems she can't take no more,
she lifts her head and still goes on...

she and only she alone
is the strongest woman i have ever known
she's always there to lend a hand,
she loved me in every way she can...

she fills a void in my soul
in my life she played a major role
inspired me to forget my hate
and to sacrifice for other's sake

she doesn't offer many things,
but irreplaceable is the love she brings
a woman that's timid, humble and shy,
she will always be our one and only NANAY...


till we meet again Donya Guelay....

NOT LIKE THE MOVIES

october 16th was an ordinary day
until you, messiah, took my mom's strength away
she never recovered and neither did i
she's been gone a long time but i still cry

i so vividly recall praying so hard
thinking that you'd grant the desire of my heart
just like the movies i counted on you
oh it hurts to learn that movies ain't true

unlike the movies, she never stood up
you gave her another year,should i thank you for that?
i promised myself not to question you anymore
but what happened was not like the movies at all

"ask and you shall receive"- oh is that really true?
how come i didn't get what i was asking from you?
not like the movies,there was no shining light
and not like the movies you were nowhere in sight

life is a play and the world's a stage
we are but actors, your entertainment slaves
and the truth hit me hard like slamming on a wall
what you are preaching ain't like the movies at all...
