Yeah…
Hurts in the morning, smoke in the air
Questions keep burnin’, but nobody cares…
Tell me, tell me; who do we pray to now?

Wake up, another war on the screen
Mothers still cryin’, kids lost in between
Preachers still talkin’, but God don’t reply
Prayers hit the ceiling, then fall from the sky

Ashes and mist where the city once stood
They tell us it's fate, but it’s written in blood
How many tears will it take, I wonder
To put out the flames or shake up the thunder?

Who do we pray to when heaven is silent?
When mercy is missing, replaced by the violence?
How many tears do we need for the rain?
To wash out the fire, to drown out the pain?

Cops on the corners, they look but don’t see
Justice ain't blind, man, she just don't believe
Bullets don’t care ‘bout the skin or the age
Too many names now engraved in the graves
They tell me to hope, they tell me to trust
But faith ain’t enough when it turns into dust
Who’s got the answers? Who’s got the cure?
Or is this the cycle we’re doomed to endure?

Who do we pray to when heaven is silent?
When mercy is missing, replaced by the violence?
How many tears do we need for the rain?
To wash out the fire, to drown out the pain?

Smoke in the skyline, red in the rain
Screams in the distance, echoes of pain
Nobody’s listening, nobody’s near
No one can answer, no one can hear

Hurts in the morning, same every day
No one can answer, no one can say…
