Fight to Forgive - Mike Dignam

I’m alright, I’m alright, I’m alright

Just tumbling along as I do

I’m alive, I’m alive I’m alive

Disconnected from all the news

It didn’t happen here in front of my eyes

I’m oblivious to live and I’m terrified

I didn’t do the wrong

I never saw the right

All the fire bombs blowing up my mind

Am I too safe to save anyone

Should I be frightened to live

Am I too afraid to blame anyone

The truth is secretly here

All we hear is violent silence

No ones admitting in

Should I fight to forgive or stand up to it

I’m a number on a screen

Nobody knows me

I cant damage that much

Where’s the army full of love

Where you pick a brother up

Instead of burying sons

I’ve been thinking bout the world in a different way

There’s such beauty getting killed here every day

And I’ve been thinking bout the fields full of many graves

With all the people that died for what we have

Am I too safe to save anyone

Should I be frightened to live

Am I too afraid to blame anyone

The truth is secretly here

All we hear is violent silence

No ones admitting in

Should I fight to forgive or stand up to it

It’s real, It’s happening

We’re all players in a game we never entered in

They steal, they kill

Treat people like lives since they never cared

And just imagine if the guns start banging

Just imagine if the ropes stop hanging

I know the thought of its sick

But reality is we’re all living in this warfare

Don’t care about loss

Just making profit and we’re all a part of it

I see evidence of pain

Force fed every day

Through the power lines

The ones that make us weak

It’s all chemically enhanced

They took the goodness out the land

And gave us their lies to eat

Am I too safe to save anyone

Should I be frightened to live

Am I afraid to blame anyone

The truth is secretly here

All we hear is violent silence

No ones admitting in

Should I fight to forgive

Or stand up to it

Should I fight to forgive

Or stand up to it
