The Good Dies
All through the Bible
It shows in every page
In the Holy Quoran
In the Bhagwat Gita
In the teachings of Buddha
Man hated one another
Because of the difference
Of his pigmentation
And because of the difference
Of his religion
All these things came to pass
Because good men
Sit by and did nothing.
Today it still goes on
Only yesteryear millions
Of Jews were massacred
Guilty of being Jews
All over in the world
Good people are dying
?cause they?re poor or black
And good Caucasians
Sit by and do nothing.
Leaders of nations
Steal and cheat
From their wretched people
Corporations cheat and steal
By declaring bankruptcies
By being shifters of accounts
Putting good employees
On the employment line
As good men with myopic eyes
Sit by and do nothing.
When evil is done
As evil prosper
People get numbed
And insensitive
With vice and violence
On TV and the media
As kids play games
Which belch violence
As good parents sit by
And do nothing.
Kids take this venom
To their schools
And share it with
Pupils and teachers
Bringing also tokens
Of guns and knives
And good teachers
And good principals
Sit by and do nothing.
Men cheat on wives
Women commit adultery
Drug dealers sell their souls
For power and the mighty dollar
Addicting many millions
With their abetted pushers
And all this evil spread
As Justice sleeps
And do nothing.
Our clergy abuse our youths
Our doctors abuse our women
Those that sit and judge
Close their eyes
As authorities abuse
Those under them
These evil come to pass
Because good men
Sit by and do nothing.
From man?s conception
Catastrophe struck Adam
Maybe the story of Eve
Was God?s way in showing
That deep down man is evil
But some good men or sages
Like Jesus, Mohammed
Ram and Buddha,
Martin Luther King
Mahatma Gandhi
These good men
Did something
But were killed.
