Tribute to Curtis Mayfield and Johnny Pate

When the power that is?
Just don't understand.
Just realize the final decision in the lord hands.

We, in this struggle, to love one another.
But for some reason there always an obstacle before us.

When the poor must go through so much red tape?
Just to get food to place upon the table.
Only when it hit the news does anyone seems to care.

Like, we not in this struggle to love one another.

If love was never(never created)?
We would find a way to look out for each other.

Yes, we in this struggle to seek peace.
Even if our leaders seem to love war.

When it get to the point?
Where those in charge won't listen to us?
You must vote them out of office.

Cause the power of the hand is like the strength of a pen.
You create more problems for those not helping us.
