Windows to the soul can be so cold you see quiet hatred
Pull up a seat pupils and look into my pupils dilated
Eyes strain in vain to see in darker conditions
So I lean on the holy spirit to occupy my vision
Rarely do you hear truer words that have been spoken
My back up against the wall but that wall behind me will be broken
A token of my appreciation is the bloody knuckles dripping
I'll keep on swinging stinging the opponent while fighting slipping
My son and daughter are looking up at me their father
So I can be the example by pointing them to their Author
Unsure of the next step, will my foot hit the ground?
When uncertainty starts hurting me God shows me He's around
Quiet whispers and steady peace dissolve all doubt
What abounds is faith like rocks with roots going down
My strength fails so I'm trying to learn to defeat this
Reaching for Jesus His strength is perfected in my weakness
Wrap my head around the simplicity of this gospel
Complexity of eternity burns in me - where my mind cannot go
Faith is the evidence of things not seen
So what does time mean and if it's fleeting, what's in between?
A vapor? A breath of air or one gasp?
Because as times pass what do you make that will last?
In an instant life goes by and there is no second chance
Each breath is another opportunity to advance
We are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses
With this instrument I'm given, let me not dismiss what the Witness says
So I digress, I digest with the reader's version I'm given
Eat the word like I'm living off of chewing verbs ad libbing
Wake up in the morning forcing feet to ground the beginning
Pave the way for another day bless the Lord I'm living!
I already know that that the mark I carry won't fit in
Set apart for the King's heart not man made, Listen!
☐
So fan the flame that tries to die with gasoline and oxygen
Coughing out the blackened lungs, clean water from washing them
Breathe river of life like fish swimming in schools no stopping them
Dropping knowledge for picking up, freely given I copy Him
My King sets the tone like a piano blasted through a megaphone
In the building, hit the ceiling when we in the zone
Hoodies up, so cold, no! You need a winter coat
Jack-it up by breaking board-om (splintered flow)
You don't get it though, but the words are there to be studied
Clearer pictures from scriptures, after mixed with spit and muddied
Blind eyes come to light, He does it right, oh ever does He!
Even if isolated I know God forever loves me
So now I go through the day with all glory directed upwards
Choosing words carefully, drop dead weight to pick up verbs
Do what is costly but takes winged flight like tossing up birds
The early one catches the worm, don't sleep so we up first
