We wake up most mornings with a sigh Wanting a few more hours to lie And get at least another hour of sleep. In this thought we get in so deep We begin the day with a smile accepting life as it comes Overcoming struggles in all its form But often forget to say our prayers And forget to thank God for helping in all areas In humans, four of every five Keeps breathing but they're not alive Living everyday wIthout having something to run after Living life like an aimless drifter Pictures don't ever change, just the people inside of them do Whoever told you life would be easy, I promise was lieing to you. Life remains the same, only situations change Only God helps make them less hard and led strange

Aimless Drifters
When you start to feel hapless, This feeling that you are hopeless Just making you feel the emptiness That chains the heart and makes you feel helpless Don't let that feeling mislead you anymore Just acquire what the soul is crying out for Hi back and unite with your maker The one the soul calls father

Prodigal Son
She held my hands in prayer Together we meditated on our future I loved her like Christ loved gentiles In faith we prayed in faith we loved Together we grew, together we loved I loved her faith more than I loved her She loved my faith more than she loved me In God we loved In faith we loved

In Faith We Loved
When there's a will there is a way Don't be confuse it's all in the brain No, you're not insane! just keep going... your life is at stake. You ask yourself if it's safe to go through tomorrow without having any regret or sorrow... we should hope for the best because if you reap you will sow and like a plant you will grow. How can we go on? As the flames burn our confidence and strip away our happiness its our job to fight through it! if the devil took our prize pocessions shouldn't we make our way to go retrieve it? And if God says he'll make a way for all your circumtances to fade away, shouldn't we give him more chances than the one's that failed to keep our promises that was made? There is no curse or spell to prevent our way of living if we live through this our problems will be less deceving As we can all tell because nobody should go through hell.

Nobody Should go Through Hell!
I learned from my mother And my youngest aunt That I didn't want to be A teenage mother I learned from another aunt That love is always a battle And I have to decide if its worth the fight (Which I believe it is) I learned from my other aunt That anger only locks you up And once in it's hard to get out I learned from my step mother that Endurance goes so far I learned from my grandmother That putting ***** In your orange juice Is not a good start to any day I learned from my cousin That care is in our hearts And if you lack empathy You may leave your soul behind I learned from my great aunt That kindness and helping people Is good for the soul I learned from my great uncle That just because you have a lot of things Doesn't mean you have everything Lastly, I learned from my father That love grows in all the little things, All the small words or actions And that without those We cannot grow love.
