Analysis of Chaos
Tonette Wiley 1973 (Philadelphia)
The river of chaos is a flowing
chaos here chaos there
Read all about it chaos chaos everywhere
The river of chaos is flowing
The world on fire and the view is dire
Satan fans the flames world leaders thinking the isms they gonna tame
The river of chaos flowing
COVID19 on the scene sickness and death rules as king
We will overcome they still say
the world is filled with hatred and dread
Racisim and fakeism the left and right violence on the increase
Love and respect on the fast decrease society crying when will it end
The real solution they over look again and again
The propaganda machine screams put him or her in and they
will bring a new day a new way we about to bring those better days
Jehovah’s Kingdom is the only way
He has appointed and anointed Jesus Christ to make the future bright
This king will bring about that new day and excelling way
He will make life shine bright for all it will right all the wrongs
We will all be singing Jahs victory song
