Now I lay me down to sleep, And God, I hope before I wake That you have mercy, mercy on me For the path that I have to take. You see, I tried and can no longer wait For my soul to be suddenly granted grace, Instead, Ill create my own sovereign state And defy the world to deny my place. To those with no care, I will no longer give chase For why should I sacrifice my heart? And if given space, they’ll come face to face With the fact that it is now that I start- A beginning of the end, a new world apart. A flight to the highest of skies- A mountainous mark on the walls of the Ark, That none but the blind would deny. For I’m no longer a child, I am no longer weak, And it is a lonely path I must take. So Lord, have mercy, mercy on me For the conquests that I will make.

Ritarando: Mercy, Mercy Me
Now I lay me down to sleep, And God, I hope before I wake That you have mercy, mercy on me For the path that I have to take. You see, I tried and can no longer wait For my soul to be suddenly granted grace, Instead, Ill create my own sovereign state And defy the world to deny my place. To those with no care, I will no longer give chase For why should I sacrifice my heart? And if given space, they’ll come face to face With the fact that it is now that I start- A beginning of the end, a new world apart. A flight to the highest of skies- A mountainous mark on the walls of the Ark, That none but the blind would deny. For I’m no longer a child, I am no longer weak, And it is a lonely path I must take. So Lord, have mercy, mercy on me For the conquests that I will make.
Lord, please have mercy..,
