Praying on unforgiving streets

I see the blood on the ground
And there is no sound
I see the tears in your eyes
tryin not to cry
I see you fall to the Earth
and for all I’m worth
I fall to my knees saying,”Oh God please,
don’t let me die on these unforgiving streets,
Please let me live,
Oh God, please don’t let me get hit.”
I get up and run away,
but not before I say
“Please,God,please let me see him again one day.”
