Fear

Paddy Casey

I'm scared for my child, lord, for her mother
For what you people want to do to one another
For the water, for the trees
Man, I'm scared of pollution, of disease

And I'm scared that my child won't live a long time
With your murderin', rape and your drug money crime;
Scared of the drugs stealing youth from the young.
Well their life story; well that'll never be sung

And I pray my child lives happy and long,
And I hope she never will sing this song
And I pray, my child, live happy and long, Lord
And I hope she never will sing this song

Well as some men talk of peace now, good intentions.
I'm only gonna look at his latest inventions.
Hope I'm wrong, Heard I'm right
Man he could end it all tonight.
I know upon this night another village is burning;
Child lose their life as their first sun is turning;
Leaders of holocaust stand so tall;
Man it looks like there ain't no value in life at all

Well I pray my child will live happy and long, Lord,
And I hope she never will sing this song

So lord please forgive me if my fear offend now
It's just so hard to transcend now
Cause when i ran away from my bad dream
The child inside was too scared and screamed
