You know your sleep is off track
When you say “Good morning”
At 5 pm stretching your back
And wondering if you’re conforming;

Conforming to the idea
That we can do it on our own,
That to be a
Successful man, I should put myself on the throne.

Last night I stayed up studying
For hours alone
Getting much done, but without letting God accompany,
Singing a song off tone.

Yesterday I was dependent on Him
To pass my finals.
And whether or not with those grades win,
I’ll be pleased to know I was in His hands.

Last night however,
I was not the same.
I refused to put Him first all together
And relied on my own name.

Before I knew it I was sleeping through the exam.
