Here I am

Banished from the field that was my home
I’m broken from the dreariness of subtle tones
Oh God, Here I am

Jealousy consumes me to the limit of murder
Brotherless, I try and walk but can go no further
Oh God, Here I am

Different tongues from this tower scatter us
Compatriots stand on top to the limit of trust,
Oh God, Here I am

A weary old pilgrim kneels and kisses the dust
A nation is born out of the old firmaments of rust
Oh God, Here I am

A promise stolen from the lips of a blind father
Treachery is blessed with an escape but can’t go further
Oh God, Here I am

Politicians suffer from an amphibian plague
Brought on by a promising heir, the slave’s sage
Oh God, Here I am

Lust came, deceived me and my cutting strength
She witnessed the depths of my hair’s length
Oh God, Here I am

On the rooftop of my Kingdom I saw and wanted
I got and I murdered and the prophet came and haunted
Oh God, Here I am

I came, I saw, I conquered for a speechless love
They know not what they do, all of the above
Oh God, Here I am
