I struggle to believe in you

What language do you speak
if you speak at all?
Are you some kind of freak
who lives to raise the ones who fall?

Would you tell me why
the cat fights the dog?
Do you go to the mosque
or the synagogue?

Do you feel our pain
and walk in our shoes?
Have you ever felt starved
or is your belly always full?

How many people die
and hurt in your name?
Does that make you proud
or does it bring you shame?

How do you do?
How does it feel to be so high?
Are you happy?
Do you ever cry?
If our fates have all been
wrapped around your finger

and if you wrote the script,
why the troublemakers?
