Love Will Never Fail



I heard once that LOVE is unconditional, at least that's what I thought I heard.
I heard once that LOVE conquers all if that is true; why haven't we heard the call?

Take a look:

There are babies killing babies there are brothers killing brothers there are cops killing mothers because their sons are gone.
There are storms and there are floods and money means more to some than blood there are wars around the world; to me, there is no LOVE.

When will we realize that LOVE will never fail?

If we see through blind man’s eyes maybe then will realize that color is a wall you see that covers our humanity. If we open up at hearts maybe then we'll make us start to change this world somehow someway and show our kids a brighter day.

There are freedoms are taken there are eyes that need to awaken to the inevitable rising of the only sun.
LOVE will come without warning and night in the morning so get ready so that you won't be the lonely one.

Then we realized that LOVE will never fail?

Everywhere you look  the quakes are shaking up humanity
Our birds are falling from the sky to wake up our reality.
Greedy politicians how they disregard our children's pain.
The church is judging everyone as if they lived without no shame.
We destroy our own environment without a sense of looking back.
The racial tension is just so high society is out of whack.
Situations, complications debilitate our race relations.
Self-esteem cannot be found in any child in any town.
What are we becoming have we lost our true stability?
I don't know a place to hide to find myself serenity.
Everybody wants their rights, but no one wants to right their wrongs.
We neglect our little ones, but we forget the youth will make us strong!
LOVE is calling everyone who will open up in just receive.
Can you hear it calling out to you? Can you take a chance and just believe?
I know your heart is breaking oh, but loneliness will not prevail.
If you haven't heard a thing I said just hear that LOVE will never fail.”
