I know you promised not again
But here I am, and ready when
You feel tired, your head gets loud
Sun-filled skies roll in grey clouds
Life starts to lose its shine
Precious family fades to whine
Bit by bit it disappears
The angers back, so are tears
You decide you’ve had enough
Your life is hard, boring, rough.
The old familiar tug of war begins
You are doomed, you never win
Apathy settles, stealing your soul
Your heart shrivels growing cold
The hungers on,and getting bold
Need precedes everything ….
Your wife, your kids, your wedding ring
Your past is forgotten, your future untold
After this one night, you may never grow old.
Your Lord and Master have called for you
For them there’s nothing, you won’t do
There’s only one who can stop it all
His name is God, please make the call
His fix is nothing you’ve ever tried
It’s not based in hurt, shame and lies.
He’ll set you free, and clean your thoughts
And rid you of old, negative rot.
You’ll become more than you ever knew
Reborn, re-birthed and hopeful too.
Words of wisdom shouted from trees
Tears of joy bring you to your knees
Sixteen years of living has passed
Never dreamed this big, or dared to ask.
But something always believed in me
Together in circles, we call it WE
A miracle arrives, it changes you
Two lives in one body, who ever knew?
And one day in the mirror, you will see
That all of this – was meant to be.
