Do you see God inside the rain,
Or when the sun shines on your face,
When birds are singing songs of praise,
Or only if you start to pray
...

I’m sick of always waiting for the breaks I never get,
I’m sick of being left behind and sleeping in my sweat,
I’m sick of making money when the ends are never met,
I’m sick of being sick of life I’m trapped inside a net,
...

Crimson skies sing lullabies losing sight of my disguise,
Burn the earth to stay alive, liars burn when liars lie,
Eating Gods own special dish, searing visions make a wish,
Tears of joy upon my lips, failed to see I failed to miss,
...

I’m racked with my guilt and I’m stung by my fear,
I kiss you upon the lips to make things unclear,
You silence the voices that I hear in my head,
The voices of critics that wish I was dead,
...

Little Marcus on a mission buying milk from the store,
Came home a little late, burst right through the door,
And he calls his moms name but he hears no answer,
Cuz his mom passed away this morning from cancer,
...

God of all creation, the keeper of my soul,
The heavens bow before you, the earth is but your throne,
And here I stand beneath you, and I have no seeds to sow,
My knees will hit the pavement when spirit starts to flow,
...

The soul takes a toll when you’re stuck in a hole,
Theirs hope no more when you’re numb from below,
You scream and you cry but you’re still all alone,
The cut runs deep when you’re burned by the blow,
...

Picture is perfect, but still I struggle with addictions,
Feeling the struggle because of holy pieces missing,
Praying to God saying Lord Jesus help me,
Cuz I allowed the carnal sin to overwhelm me,
...

Abstract wishes, absent kisses, missiles miss by inches dig the ditches,
Expected miss, one separate twist, my own reflections kiss with the abyss,

What is this, my life is bliss, I spit till life is split down from the pits,
...

The wind blows then the trees sway and the leaves make sounds at the end of the day,
If you sit quietly you can hear the wind say: what do you seek?
If you look to sky at the stars far away see the sun pass by when the moons on the way
With open ears you hear the moon say: what do you seek?
...

Seven times, I have tried, in seven lives, seven lies I’ve devised,
And I bide, my time, until I cry bring the light in my life,

You scream for some help but there’s nobody else,
...

My soul from white to black, back to familiar habitat,
And though my fear is back, i quell it with that zovarax,
Health’s doing jumping jacks, the fire hot like candle wax,
Strollin through Hades ave, I’m hit by devils battleaxe,
...

We sit and joke, observe others with a microscope,
Prod and poke, like they dead, singing hateful notes,
And we know, that our gossip simply strangles throats,
We blow smoke, anyways like we some heathen folks,
...

I have now given myself almost completely to my sins,
And once again ignoring God and running to my friends,
It’s like I never learn,
It’s like I wanna burn,
...

I’m sitting still and I think about the time that I waste, and I face, my disgrace, numb and losing my taste,
I’m sitting still going dizzy from the places I’ve been, it’s a sin, it depends on what your faiths really in,
I’m sitting still and I question all the things that I see, is it me, can I be, the one that hinders my free,
I’m sitting still and I work to turn my head to the sky, ask God why, while I cry, is it cuz I never tried,
...

Sunrise, sunsets, my eyes, can’t rest, I’m blessed, but I cannot repent,
I cry, till sweat, I cry, and I forget, the moments left, and I did not repent,
I fight, my death, I tried, my will is spent, I’m out of breath, and I cannot repent,
...

Let me hear you shout what you all about,
Denying all your doubt when you move your mouth,
Your words have clout when you win your bout,
When the spirit in the man started breaking out,
...

There are no locks outside this box, it’s hot and I cannot see my own reflection,
Seeing all the people, sitting in the steeple, peaking through the peep hole, and I’m now a weak old stump,
I see the moonlight,
I need to do right,
...

I saw my purpose, in the sky, it pierced my eye,
i saw the purpose, of my life, to get it right,
we chased the shadows, all away, we weren't afraid,
we're chasing shadows, everyday, and go astray,
...

On the way back home at night,
My conscience not in sight,
And I did not recite my daily prayer to stay alive inside,
Where do I want to be,
...
