HUMANITY DIES

PART 1
WHY ARE WE SO RAW

Why are we so raw?
Always going to war
Against your fellow man
Evil deeds you plan

There is so much hate
It can fill a bottomless pit
One with whom you ate
You kill in an angry fit

Are we so demented
Not feeling tormented
By the sight of carnage
The product of our rage

Look at Sarajevo
Rwanda and Kosovo
Slaughter incorporated
By a race so demented

Sorrow tears my soul
Hitler has risen again
Ready to play his role
Just like the first Cain

PART2
WHO IS HITLER?

Who is this Hitler?
He’s a principle of evil
The prototypical killer
The son of the devil

Hitler enslaved Africa
Decimated Indians in America
Destabilised all Europe
A destroyer of human hope

Hitler is wicked ambition
Greed and avarice
He is discrimination
Cause of social jaundice

The first Hitler was Cain
Blood thirsty to his vein
Killed his brother in rage
Thus setting up the stage

War, war and more war
Raw, raw and so raw
War has crippled man
And destroyed his whole clan

PART3
HITLERIAN WORLD
(WAR, WAR AND MORE WAR)

Diseases in divers places
Starvation all around
Affects the various races
How does the world respond?

War, war and more war
Raw, raw…and so raw
Stockpiling weapons of war
In order to fight more war

AIDS has killed many
Cancer still abounds
Medicine begs for a penny
How does the world respond?

War, war and more war
Raw, raw…and so raw
Stockpiling weapons of war
In order to fight more war

The environment is dying
We stand on mournful ground
Most people are crying
How does the world respond?

War, war and more war
Raw, raw…and so raw
Stockpiling weapons of war
In order to fight more war

Children learn to kill
Like the killer hound
Others learn to steal
How does the world respond?

War, war and more war
Raw, raw…and so raw
Stockpiling weapons of war
In order to fight more war

This is such a shame
Problems all around
Yet help is so lame
How does the world respond?

War, war and more war
Raw, raw…and so raw
Stockpiling weapons of war
In order to fight more war

PART 4
WHERE IS OUR HUMANITY?

Love your next door neighbour
Be your brother’s keeper
Live a life of candour
Commands our heavenly father

We are made in his likeness
To reflect his glory
But we have lost our greatness
And become so gory

We have all gone astray
Falling out of the WAY
Helping not the needy
We have become so greedy

Where is our humanity?
Milk of human kindness
Where is our divinity?
Godliness and goodness

We’ve become like criminals
Preying like animals
Humanity has lost her life
Stabbed with Hitler’s Knife

PART 5
MY BEST FRIEND IS NAUGHT

What a tragic shame
Says I the town crier
I do now proclaim
The warring man a liar

He kills for nobility
Yet murder is ignoble
He claim it is necessity
To make his domain stable

Now my soul is sorrowful
My best friend is naught
I have been such a fool
Because I knew it not

Her name is humanity
Milk of human kindness
She gave us divinity
Godliness and goodness

She lost a limb in Sarajevo
Got blinded in Rwanda
Was stabbed in Kosovo
Now bleeds to death in Chechnya

   FANTASTIC!!!!!!!
   BEAUTIFUL. We love the ryhming, the musical effect to it + the repetition in part 3 of “WAR, WAR AND MORE WAR…”.
   Ofcourse you can refer this poem to Bush, not just Hitler, and also Mccain. Ayo u are indeed gifted. A true reality of our society-” One with whom you ate, U kill in an angry fit…”
