Knocking On Heaven's Door

Knocking On Heaven's Door 

When god made this planet 

He made it for us humans 

When he made the first tree to the first lake 

He had made sure that all his children were provided with everything 

From the food to feed the hunger 

To the water to quench one's thirst 

He had made sure that there was immense 

For no child of his was bereft of his love 

But greed was something that corrupted us humans 

From the greed of land to the greed of power 

All this made them thirsty for blood instead of water 

From a planet that sung in unison this was now a planet divided by nations 

Nations made on ideas and ideals 

Which were bereft of humanity 

Where the unquenchable thirst of greed was still to be quenched 

Was a place far away 

The people came together to fight 

With homes being bombarded 

Families being separated 

And the land turning red 

How the almighty god cried each day to see his beautiful world 

Now turning into a place where hell had been brought back from the ruins 

With soldiers being bound by orders 

Had to fight for the battle for others and kill the people who he never met 

How one bullet pierce through the chest of a soldier 

Yet he stands to defend his nation from the greed and power lusty people 

How he makes a valiant effort to protect his land from the impurities of corruption 

How he fights till the final drop of his blood has kissed the land he proudly defended

He just then lays down on his loved land 

Just to wait for the god's angels to take him away 

Just to see himself knocking on Heaven's door 

Only to see the world for what he fought for suffering in hell
