The more and more I live
I am reaching my boiling point in give
The more you give the unappreciative people take and become
I am letting the truth be told
I am just that bold
People who I thought were my friends
Now with an attitude affair I am supposed to bend
However since when?
I firmly believe I shouldn’t have been born
No, I am not waking up from a yond
However, the passage of my Grandfather’s words always come to mind, “Live and Learn”
The older I get the more wisdom I get
It’s also the observation and not uttering a word
I hope you are learning as I need to be heard
People and things are often not what they appear to be
But wait, there is a see
I am not looking for love just appreciation
But let’s get real that will never happen
It can only work if God is involved
He is the solution in how problems will be solved
But we live in a cruel world
Yet the mission is not part in cruel ways
Days are getting short day by day
I have been told just die already
But God has me on solid ground being steady
The fact that God favored me
It’s a journey of look up and feel blessed in see
So continue to hate me
I am yet praying for you so wait and see
Heaven hasn’t called me home
Earth for a while I must roam
Blessed coming from thee
Assurance being be
Heaven Heaven Heaven being key.
