This life of sin
Is like a game of chess
That I just can’t win
It has no pros
All it has is cons
Like a team of queens
Versus my team of pawns
I have no power
And it seems my grapes
Always turn sour
Even if I try
To make the best of every hour
No matter what happens
My heart will never know
What it means to cower
It only knows now
What it is to empower
My body with the strength
To reach the top of this tower
Hopefully with my new faith
I can manage to scour
The stains of sin from my life
Leaving nothing but a glower
Upon the Devil’s face
As I slide you
Into my protective embrace
My sins will erase
When our fingers interlace
