As the darkness pervades There's the glimmering light of hope Lord bless this wicked man As he ties my neck with this rope It kind of hurts When I do better and it gets worse I have to continue to trap my thoughts The wicked thought is the first Smite this man with a curse Good petitions rehearsed I'm far from perfect Third chapter Peter 9 is the verse No repaying evil for evil Two wrongs don't make a right I must be the sun in the day I must be the stars in the night So in essence, command the presence To give light to life's lessons Forgive me, my trespasses Trying to move forward, no more regressing When you struggle and strive Don't let the fruit commence to pride Remember the tears you cried You know how others feel inside Nowhere to turn Nowhere to hide You didn't try hard enough But you tried All good things must come to an end Except that place they call heaven The realm where stars exist Beams of light in the darkness
