Choice

Fallen, near the beginning

Redeemed towards the end

A lot in the middle

But the message is love my friend

God created us

Stitched us together with his hand

So that he could have something in his image

To enjoy his land

Some call him selfish

I argue that he is selfless

Love is what it is

He brings meaning to the meaningless

He gave us the power of choice

To love or to hate

Love and you will live

Hate and you will find your fate.

Devil's Tricks

(v1)

I was playing tricks for the devil

I never thought I could be at that level

Insecurity, impurity,

blind as you can be

I served the prince of air

Not knowing my life was an eternal affair

I used drugs, I stole, nothing good in me

All those around could obviously see

The path I was heading down

Was not the place to be found

(C)

Drained. Exhausted. Struggling for air

This isn’t depression, it’s despair

It’s growing deep from within

Taking my last breath of air.

(v2)

Fading away, the darkness creeping in

Moving silently the light becomes dim

A last pull for life, but no success

This has become a mess

Feeling alone and scared

As if nobody has ever cared

I fall deeper and deeper, isn’t anyone here?

The chains of the devil, I’m filled with fear.

My soul is lost, I cannot see

Can’t anyone help me?

(C)

Drained. Exhausted. Struggling for air

This isn’t depression, it’s despair

It’s growing deep from within

Taking my last breath of air.

(v3)

I can’t live like this anymore

Isn’t there a way out, maybe a door?

Or am I in too far? In too deep?

Does the devil have my soul to keep?

I can feel the ice on my skin

The frost, I’m freezing from within

I have nowhere to turn, nowhere to go

My heart is as cold as the white snow.

Hatred, resentment and anger built

But I’m wearing it like it’s  a Scottish quilt.

(v4)

I was high and full of greed

What I really needed was to be freed

God saw my struggle from above

And with compassion he blessed me with his love

It wasn’t easy to begin

But now the light isn’t so dim

I can finally see

God’s goodness and love residing in me

No longer do I act as I once did

No longer am I seduced by the devils bib

I am a son of the Lord most high

And the devil couldn’t capture me

So I dare him to try.

He has no dominion over me,

Because I’ve been

freed by God you see

Torn In Two

My head is spinning it’s out of control

I’ve lost grip my life is on a roll

Down the hill like a snowball it’s falling

I can’t hear you God what’s your calling?

I’m stuck in my sin I can’t get away

God won’t you hear me today?

Don’t you know who I am?

Covered in sin I’m a fallen man.

But you Jesus, perfect and Holy

Why would you want to know me?

I’m torn in two

How I wish to serve you

The chains are holding me in

Father I love you but I’m stuck in sin

You have released me

That I can fly like an eagle and be free

I see the prison cell and the gate is unlocked

Torn in two I’m shocked

What way shall I choose?

I have nothing else to loose

A step outside the cell

Into your love, never tasting hell

How can I still do these things that aren’t right?

They keep me from sleepin’ at night

How I wish to be free

I still feel these chains holding me

Where’s you’re promised grace

There it is staring right into my face

Jesus Christ in his glory

I fall to my knees it’s too much for me

*God’s light shining on my soul*

Swallowed Pill

Dreams passed away of time, new things new ways to spend a dime.

See a life pass away and look the other way.

Break it down next line; tell me it’s all going to be fine.

This world is trash, like a quick spreading rash

Soon it will all be done, smoked away no more fun.

Smile as you will, this shit is just another swallowed pill.

High as the sky, dream away and never ask why.

Is that life? No. There’s more to it bro.

Suite yourself piss it away, and see where you end up the last day.

Ego

Blood raging inside, my pride swelling above all,

My ego standing ten feet tall

A dream crushed, I’m blushed, see my life rushed.

 A man ripped with envy, all of me, rhymes to be free

Knowing on the inside it can never be.

Chained to paths of destruction, this is my instruction

Give up, call it quits. There’s no use for these fits.

I am torn in two, my moments down to the last few.

And all I can say is it’s all because of you.

Ego you’ve torn me apart, conceived the devil in my heart.

With no mistake, you’ve drowned me in the lake.

This exterior sense of reality, why’s it have to be?

I scream in shortness of breath, the only way to defeat you is by death.

So I’m done, never again will I be called the devil’s son.

No title

No title

Another day blessed, lucky to be alive light shining bright in my eyes

God has called me to be something I never thought I could be,

and to my surprise through faith he delivers me

all things through him are held together

so no matter the weather, the hurricane , the storm

He’s there carrying you through, but be careful not to conform

to the patterns of this world, but be transformed

through the renewing of your mind

so that you may prove the will of God

which is good, acceptable and perfect.

But watch out for the dogs because they  come off as kind.

Don’t be fooled transformation only comes

through the study of his word

don’t listen to what you’ve heard

because it is full of lies and despise

you are a child of God

adopted into his kingdom your one of a few

from the beginning he was the first to love,

so why do we hate, isn’t his love enough

do we have to chase our sin?

The lustful desires, they’re like raging wildfires

consuming lives like trees left and right

this life just isn’t right.

God please Lord forgive us, for we have sinned

all have fallen short of your glory lord

you paid the price none of us could afford

thank you Lord AMEN 

Is This You?

Is This You?

Hurt, pain?

Crying out in the rain?

Weak, broken?

Searching for some gain?

Lost, alone?

Standing in the cyclone?

Desperate, scared?

Lifeless as a drone?

Disconnected, dead?

Full of dread?

Sad, shattered?

Nothing else to be said?

Hopeless, despair?

For you nobody has a care?

Jesus knows,

And he is there.
