30-Day Song Challenge: Day 20

DAY TWENTY: Song that has Many Meanings to Me

Lauryn Hill – Forgive Them Father



Although today’s song and yesterday’s song speak on the topic of forgiveness, Ms. Hill pointed out that people are selfish and stupid. There are backstabbers and cruel people in this world, and although we may forgive them, that doesn’t mean they won’t pay for their transgressions. It stands as a song of karmic justice. Some people wear two-faces and sometimes that ends with you being betrayed by them, but those who do wrong by you will always end up reaping what they sow. I.e. Cain and Abel, Caesar and Brutus, and Jesus and Judas.


Maybe Hill is also asking God not to be too heavy with His punishment, for they know not what they do…
