The Intro: Darfur / Jesus Wept

Below, in bold, is the text of the intro I have recorded, the opening words to the new piece, being released tomorrow, October 1. Thought you'd want to see just how serious, as serious as genocide, I am about this.

The image to the left is of a malnourished child in Darfur, probably dead by now, purely because she is in an area of the world where the savagery of man is unchecked by the world's superpowers, so sure of their moral superiority of the world that they rain fire on their enemies.

And we let children starve to death.

"Half a million dead in Darfur, in the Sudan.

100 times the innocents who died on 9/11.

Children. Women. Men. Genocide.

Wake up. And see.

Wake up and see.

Wake up and see why

Jesus wept."


I'm not pulling any punches in the lyric, either. Wake up and see.
