| September 11, 2001 - Attack on America Evil had struck us, evil we didn't know of But you can never destroy our love You can never take our pride away For you may have destroyed our symbol that day But what you've done will come back to you Now you're afraid cause you know it's true You don't want us to retaliate But, sorry to say, it's too late You should not have declared war on this nation Should not have send destruction Other nations will be by our side Fate will be our guide Now destruction will come your way And will not care to hear what you have to say After we get all the facts After we find out who have done those evil acts Justice will come and punish you Those who tried to protect you will be punished too On the eleventh day of September Well will always remember When our nation and other nations became one |

| Keeping the Faith My spirit and love will never die No matter how many times you try to destroy me And even though I do cry I rise, I become stronger and you'll see That I will defeat you I will overcome your deceitful behavior And all I say is true For my strength comes from my savior The most powerful thing is love And, also, is kindness God sent his angels from above To remind us that there will be no emptiness Soon you will no longer be blind Soon you will see No matter if you're unkind In God I do believe I will be saved |
| Prayer Hopelessness has come over me Emptiness has filled my soul My heart of selfishness will no longer be Try to understand an mend this hole Mercy is what I beg of you Mistery, I beg it to leave Look deep in my heart for what is true Took a love I use to receive Love is all I need Above all I desire Is for you to forgive me and believe I no longer want to burn in hell's fire I cry and beg on my knees for forgiveness Please understand All I need is a helping hand All I need is your love And if you give me a chance By sending your angels from above Without a glance I will follow you in your footstep |
| Why Can't We Be That Way Again I remember a time we played happily Didn't matter what nationality We played so innocently And were angry But now all grown up we hate each other We can't stand one anther As Children we were always together As adults we don't even want to bother Now I shed tears For when we were children we had no fears To me it's still not clear For as we got older hate was all we were able to hear It bothers me Cause as children, hate we didn't see It didn't matter cause our heart and soul were free Now hatred taken over and we cannot flee Why can't we be that way again Instead of being in hatred's den |
