Screaming Soul

      I heard a story but In today’s
World I don’t know if it’s a truth or a lie
But I guess it doesn’t really matter
The moral of telling it is reason why

When I heard of this story, I thought
To myself it needed to be re told
It’s the tragedy of a boy named
John Bolaware, he was just 16 years old

At his age he thought he was invincible
He was living his life in the fast lane
And this story of his demise is both
Very tragic and quite insane

The year was 1984 and he was
Full of life and revel
The music was loud and the song
Was Van Halen Runnin With The Devil

In a car with his friends traveling at
A very high rate of speed feeling free
They lost control of the vehicle
And went off the road and hit a tree

Hearing this I thought about the Stairway
To Heaven and The Highway To Hell
The promise and truth of Jesus and
The promise and lies the Devil has for sale

When the Police arrived on the scene
The radio was still loud with Rock & Roll
They snapped a picture just in time to
Capture the boys Screaming Soul

The moral of the story is we never know
Our fate or final day so get on the right
Path while you still have a choice.
