Oh Haiti from ENGELS II by ENGELS

Oh Haiti

Verse 1
Cracked earth beneath bare feet,
No shelter from the cruelest heat.
Children’s eyes like hollow drums,
Beating silence no one comes.
Verse 2
Smoke and hunger paint the air,
Ashes where the crops once were.
Mothers praying through the night,
For a dawn that brings no light.
Bridge
They scream in tongues no one hears,
Drowned by decades, grief, and fears.
Chorus
Oh Haiti, lost in time and flame,
Buried deep, without a name.
Forgotten by the world outside,
Where mercy fades and ghosts reside.

Verse 3
Rusted aid in broken crates,
Promised futures sealed by fates.
Shadows walk through shattered towns,
While foreign cameras spin around.
Verse 4
Gangs and guns replace the law,
Justice carved with teeth and claw.
Faith now flickers, thin and pale,
In this never-ending tale.
Bridge
Whispers rise, but no reply,
Hope just learning how to die.
Chorus (2x)
Oh Haiti, lost in time and flame,
Buried deep, without a name.
Forgotten by the world outside,
Where mercy fades and ghosts reside.
