NO MORE ROLLING THE DICE

JUST BECAUSE I CAN'T SEE YOU
DOESN'T MEAN I WON'T MAKE IT THROUGH
SO I TRUST YOU GOD
WITH ALL OF MY HEART
AND MY LIFE
YES LORD
NO MORE ROLLING THE DICE
BECAUSE I HAVE ALREADY WON
THANKS TO WHAT YOU DONE
YES YEARS AGO
BEFORE I EVEN STARTED TO GROW
INTO AN EMBRYO
SO I OWE YOU
OH YES I DO
BECAUSE YOU HAVE STAY TRUE
TO YOUR WORD
YES EVEN TO THE BIRDS
AND TREES
SO I AM PLEASED
TO GET ON MY KNEES
AND SERVE
THIS SOCIETY
IN A VARIETY
OF WAYS
YES RATHER II EVER FINANCIALLY PAYS
OR NOT
YES I'M HOT
BUT NO MORE ROLLING THE DICE

JUST RELAX

RELAX
AND DON'T LOOK BACK
BECAUSE YESTERDAY IS OVER
MY LOVE
YES THE DOVE
HAS FLOWN AWAY
TO A UNKNOWN PLACE
OF GRACE
SO TASTE TODAY
BEFORE IT FLIES TOO
INTO THE BLUE
AND WHITE
LIKE A KITE
OR A BALLOON
OR THE MOON
AND STARS
OR A RACE CAR
GOING FAR
UNTIL IT GONE
AND WE ARE LEFT
ALL ALONE
TO ROAM
INTO TOMORROW
ON BORROWED
TIME
YEAH LIKE A CUP OF SUGAR
OR FLOUR
BUT EVER HOUR COUNTS
YEAH DOWN TO THE MINUTE
BUT SINCE GOD SENT IT
IT IS A BLESSING
OR A LESSON
SO STOP STRESSING
AND JUST RELAX

WHY AM I REALLY ALIVE?

GOD
THIS IS YOUR PEA-POD
TRYING REAL HARD
TO UNDERSTAND
YOUR PLAN
FOR ME
ON THIS LAND
THAT YOU CREATED
SO LONG AGO
YES BEFORE EVEN STARTED TO GROW
IN MY MOMMY'S TUMMY
WHERE EVERYTHING WAS YUMMY
AND BLESSED
I GUESS
WELL AT LEST...
LESS STRESSED
FROM WHERE I WAS
AND I SAY THIS BECAUSE
I WAS SAFE
IN A PLACE
CALLED YOUR THOUGHTS
YES WHERE THERE WERE NO FAULTS
TO GET CAUGHT UP
YES NO SIN
JUST PERFECTION
AND PROTECTION
FROM A PARENT
THAT IS SO PROFOUND
THAT NOT EVEN THIS GROUND
COULD HOLD HIM DOWN
HERE
MY DEAR SWEET GOD
IN HEAVEN
WHO WATCHES OVER ME 24/7
365
BUT WHY AM I REALLY ALIVE?

A WARM EMBRACE

HELLO FUTURE
HELLO TOMORROW
NO LONGER WILL I FEEL SORROW
BECAUSE I AM STRONGER
THAN MY YESTERDAYS
OR MY GRAY AREAS
I SHOULD SAY
WELL REALLY GOD HAS MADE...
EVERYTHING BAD FADE...
AWAY
WELL HAS MADE EVERYTHING OKAY
YEAH EVEN IF I CAN' GASP IT ALL TODAY
HE KNOWS IT ALL ALREADY
SO I SHOULD JUST REMAIN STEADY
IN HIS FRAME
OF MIND
YEAH HIS SPACE
AND TIME
LIKE A LIME
TO A PEEL
YEAH I MUST TRUST
HIS WILL
FOR MY FUTURE
ENDEAVORS
FOREVER AND FOREVER

A PHONY EMOTION

LONELY
IS LIKE A CLOSE
HOMIE
BUT LONELY
CAN BE A REAL PHONY
BECAUSE I'M NOT REALLY ALONE
YEAH MY FEELINGS ARE OFTEN TIMES
WRONG
NO MATTER HOW STRONG
THEY COME ON
ME
THEY CAN OFTEN TIMES BE LYING
AND LEAVE ME
CRYING
YEAH FEELING LIKE...
I'M DYING
INSIDE
SO HERE COMES PRIDE
AND I GO ALONE
FOR THE RIDE
LIKE A JUST MARRIED BRIDE
UNTIL MY HIDE GETS TIRED
OR MY WILL WANTS SETS STILL
AND JUMPS OUT THE TRUNK
YEAH UNTIL I'M OUT OF MY FUNK
JUST LIKE NOW
BECAUSE I AM A CHILD
OF GOD
SO NO
I AM NEVER REALLY ALONE
SO FEELING LONELY IS...
A PHONY EMOTION

LIFE IS NOT OVERRATED

LIFE
IS A GIFT
LIFE
IS A CHOICE
SO USE YOUR VOICE
IF YOU ARE STILL LIVING
YES IF YOU ARE WILLING
MEANING IF YOU STILL CAN
BECAUSE MAN
DIDN'T PUT YOU HERE
IN THE FIRST PLACE
PARTICIPATE IN THIS RACE
NO, A SPIRIT CALLED GRACE DID
YES HE CHOSE YOU TO BE HIS KID
YES HIS KIN
HIS FRIEND
HIS DISCIPLE
YES SUCH A TALL ORDER
FOR A DAUGHTER
I KNOW
BUT HE MADE YOU SO
YOU WILL BE FINE
BECAUSE HE WILL NEVER LEAVE YOU BEHIND
YES BECAUSE HE IS SO KIND
AND HE JUST SHINES
DAY AND NIGHT
OVER ALL WHO IS AWARE
BECAUSE HE CARES
ABOUT EVERYTHING
HE CREATED
BECAUSE LIFE IS NOT OVERRATED

SERIOUSLY

FEELINGS
TURN INTO WORDS
WORDS TURN INTO POEMS
PROMS TURN INTO BOOKS
LOOK
THIS IS THE STORY OF LIFE
GOD'S GLORY
AND MY HUMAN SACRIFICE
SORT OF SPEAK
TO REACH OUT YO OTHER
YEAH TO MY BROTHERS
AND SISTERS
BY UNCOVERING MYSELF
IN DEPTH
YEAH UNTIL THERE'S NOTHING LEFT
INSIDE OF ME
OR SO IT'S SEEMS
OR IS IT JUST A DREAM?
YEAH DO I REALLY COME CLEAN?
WITH EVERYTHING
I AM FEELING
FROM THE FLOOR
AND THE CEILING
OF MY HEART
YEAH DO I REALLY LET DOWN MY GUARD?
OR AM I JUST PLAYING A PART?
IN GOD'S BIG PLOT
SERIOUSLY
