Amen

I feel the end is coming in the way I foretold it

I’m just a seed of a song living in the mind of a poet

With a pen from god

The hands of man

Taunted by a world we have yet to understand

Amen

When love is the key

To all we fear

Hatred lies in the eyes of those who shed tears

So we pursue what we’re told is the meaning life

When we would where mask so no one can see us cry

Hurting those we love to protect just how we feel

Steady dreaming of perfection never facing what’s really real

We end up in sorrow heads down to the ground

Wishing we could pray for a better tomorrow but we don’t know how

Asking god for forgiveness of things we have yet to sin

Hells calling our name but we have to find the end

Amen

No one understands love and the joyful pain that it gives

Or how our only purpose in life is to simply live

See we live life trying to expand every breath that we take

When all life really is are the moments that take that breath away

Then comes that someone special who keeps us above this earth

Now your purpose in life is to expand every breath through birth

Though how can we continue when we won’t accept help from one another

In this world we truly need more love for each other

Though I’ve given so much love leaving me with nothing left but hate

I just pray that one I don’t wake up with my hands and tears all over my face

So I wont give up on love I’ll just abuse the hate

Because I saw the end and it seems we could use the faith

So when I’m gone is when you will understand

How man can change all if together we stand

If love keeps you strong then never grow weak

Embrace that bond for all eternity

Life is too short to live in pain

The sun shines for a week for every day it rains

I was sent here to only heed the message

That true love comes to all if you chose to let it

Fate does exists though you can control it

It only gets you half way it’s up to you not to blow it

Amen

So maybe one day some day

We can all find a way to put an end to the gun play

Until then I’ll just let the drum play

Because I know with hope soon someone will truly love me

I won’t let the hate abide by my side

I’m coming out my shell no longer can I hide

These feelings inside so I’ll let go of all pride

And wipe my eyes twice for every night that I ever cried

You see just because he don’t ball his fist does not mean he has no hands

And he don’t like to talk much doesn’t mean he has no plans

And because he has two feet doesn’t mean alone he can stand

He lives on his own that does not make him man

Amen

So I just want to take time out to thank those who hate
Without your doubt and jealousy I would not be who I am today
You are my motivation that keeps me strong
Without you there would be no one for me to prove wrong
See I need you to hate
I need you to look down upon me the way you do
I need you for me to be great
So that I can rise and look down upon you
So I thank you and hope you remain in hatred
Besides you only hate me because I am something you cant be so lets face it
In the road of life I have gained many enemies and lost many friends
Though its hatred like yours that guarantees this road will never end

Amen
