Once a lifeless soul thinking death was the only way out
Each problem hit me harder and harder like the rear end of a trout
A little boy searching for the sharp end to impale his torn up heart
Because his pain kept piling up like the items in a shopping cart
He was so feeble but yet he kept trying to search for that last bit of determination
As he went nights watching his mother suffering from the pain and agony of constipation
He had a father who's main goal seemed like making him feel aggravated
Always telling him he's stupid beating him up over grades and when he succeeded he still didn't make him feel motivated
He grew up with too much food to eat off his plate
Always wishing he could meet his grandfathers who could've impacted his life although he knew it was too late
He was slandered by the words they threw at him like the lunch in a cafeteria food fight
But through it all he knew that one day he'd be destined to open up his wings and take flight
He knew that he'd be destined for great things as he was told by the Lord
He knew one day that he could share his story and help everyone sing their songs in one accord
He kept on pushing and fighting with his shield from Christ
And he was willing to take the risk if it could benefit others no matter how big the price
He knew that he'd be drawing people out the darkness whenever their skies were overcast
Because he knew that one day he'd be telling this Story From The Past
