A dark place where no one resides
And drugs and alcohol stop me from closing my eyes
A place where pain lives everyday.
And addiction that caused people to walk away A place where I got lost in sin
Searching for God but don't know where to begin
So I'm to Screaming to the sky hoping God hears my plea
Because this darkness is a case and I just wanna be free
Theres a flicker of light that still burns inside my soul
A hope that one day I can be whole
So I'll pray for forgiveness strength to break free from these gates.
As I reach for the light cause this will not be my fate
Its a long uphill Climb and I knew it won't be easy
But I'll keep walking towards God's light even when My steps feel uneasy
Every step is a prayer every breathe is a sign
That this life is still worth living and with God's help I'm taking back what's mine
