What I’m about to say
I know you already know this
You came into my life
When I was at my lowest
So I write some of my gratitude
Pour out my heart just to show this!
Throughout the years
Many tried to disown this
I needed hope to better cope
Somehow never sought for alcohol or dope
You Cleaned my thoughts with spiritual soap
I’m tired of being the one to mope
I prayed for your presence of peace
Instead, you just gave me some additional rope
I felt like taking it to hang myself
But instead I just held on tightly
Praying for strength daily
All the while these demons still fight me
They curse me and put me down
While they continuously spite me
I must be so important to your plan
If they take so much time just to fight me
I’ve grown to not care any more
Whether someone loves or even straight up just dislikes me
When you’re the only one I need to make me happy
They could get on line, and they too could just bite me!
I was tired of the fighting
But I realized throughout, that my courage grew
I now take comfort in you
Because my future you already knew
And now that my future is here
I have no one to thank but you
So thank you
For I am so full of gratitude
Even though every now and then
I mess up with some ungrateful attitude
I do feel good to know
That you were there no matter the situation
I prayed to the heavens every step of the way
Even though you were by my side the whole time
Even up until this very day
I want to take this moment
Just so that I can thank you
My last request is for you
To take my will and make it one with you
One with your desire and full intent of your law
Help me appreciate myself
Even though
I’m blemished with so many flaws
Open doors
Break down walls
Shatter the floors
‘Cause I’m feeling so elated, highly inflated
That I want to come down for more
That’s for sure!
Spitting venomous words
To mentally curb
Using the power of sour verbs
Like patch kids
With broken latch lids
I want to know everything
Like Sid the Science Kid
Of me, you’ll never rid
Until I burst open like a bubble
But this bubble won’t pop
Until I choose to stop
Until my flesh does rot
Or my soft heart chooses to stop
I will be Stardust like Ziggy
Put money in my bank like Piggy
I’ve suffered 7 years of famine like Twiggy
Now my seven years of prosperity are about to begin
Because I have Him
I lay under His wings
He helps me to win
Thus I speak with such voracious tenacity
And with such eloquent vim.
So thank you lord
For giving me the holy sword
To cut asunder the beasts of the field
I know I will continue to win
Because unto you I take comfort & yield
Your love is my shield
And you promised me 40 acres, a mule, and my own corn field
I know I must be vigilant & diligent of the swarming locust
While the beasts of the earth try to make me lose focus
I have to play a little game of lingusitical
Train wreck grammatical
Highly dramatical
My 7th sabbatical hypnosis
Filled with the wisdom of God
More than the knowledge of Gnosis
No need for Plato or Aristotle
When my love letter is written
And already shipped off in a bottle
With full throttle
The fear of the lord is the beginning of wisdom
Is going to not only be my philosophy
But also my daily motto
I’m no longer gonna be hollow
I’m going to be filled to the brim
Filled with Him
Instead of SIN
I will taste the waters of life
No longer of strife
As long as I still hold onto Him!
