38th & Chicago

How long, Lord?
How many times?
How many years?
How many dying?

How long, Lord?
How many tears
Do we need to shed
Before You can hear us?

How long, Lord?
Those flashing lights
A mother's scream
Your name divine

Streets running red
Bodies chalked in white
And I'm all alone
And I don't wanna die

We put our hands up to the sky
Pray for love divine
Someone, tell me why
My brothers slowly dying

Angel in the sky
Lead me to the light
Came to testify
Got the Devil in your mind

How long, Lord?
How many times?
How many ways?
How many lives?

How long, Lord?
How many prayers
Do we need to sing
Before You can hear us?

How long, Lord?
Those flashing eyes
A father's scream
Your name divine

Streets running red
Bodies chalked in white
And we're all alone
And we don't wanna die

We put our hands up to the sky
Pray for love divine
Someone, tell me why
My brothers slowly dying

Angel in the sky
Lead me to the light
Came to testify
Got the Devil in your mind

We put our hands up to the sky
Pray for love divine
Someone, tell me why
My brothers slowly dying

Angel in the sky
Lead me to the light
Came to testify
Got the Devil in your mind

We put our hands up to the sky
Pray for love divine
Someone, tell me why
My brothers slowly dying

Angel in the sky
Lead me to the light
Came to testify
Got the Devil in your mind

How long, Lord?
How many times?
How many years?
How many dying?

How long, Lord?
How many tears
Do we need to shed
Before You can hear us?
