I’m Striving To Be A Better Me
I'm striving to be a better me,
Because what I once was
Has only dragged me down
And prevented me from achieving
What I am aiming to accomplish,
I'm striving to be a better me,
Because I linger on what once was
Instead of seeing what is,
What is more important to live in
Then living in the darkness of the past
I struggle to see what the future holds for me
Because I'm stuck on the past
But I'm striving to be a better me,
And become someone worth living for,
I no longer want to dwell on what once was,
And I'll start seeking out the truth in the present,
Because I'm striving to be a better me.
I Could Hardly Imagine
I could hardly imagine
When you put your life on the line
Just to save mine
You are so divine,
When You died on that cross
And rose on the third day
We were all at loss
For the words You prayed,
All shall bow down
When You come again
You'll have the crown
And You shall reign,
You were sent to set us free
From the lies of this Earth
You did plea
So we could be rebirth
How holy is Your name
I could hardly imagine
The daughter I have become
For I am Your bloodline,
You saved me from this pain
And took me into Your arms
And broke the chains
Of the world's harm,
When You came for me
I could hardly imagine
What my life might be
When You put Your life on the line,
My life would be filled with praise
When I show the world I'm Yours
From the dark abyss I will raise
From these never ending wars,
Who could hardly imagine
The reasons why You chose
To help me waken
From the depths of the shadows,
I'm ready to meet You
At the gates of Your home
I've lived all the way through
From this life I've roamed,
You chose a fool,
A silly old fool,
From these jaws,
Because I was filled with flaws.
Torn Apart
When I hear their battle cries of sudden death,
Death seems to be knocking at my front door
My front door budges and then burst open into pieces
Into pieces my dignity goes whenever I come near their swords
Their swords cut through my heart and my entire being
My entire being shakes in the looming darkness
Darkness is all I can see today
Today was the first day of the never ending wars
Wars erupt all around me and I'm becoming petrified
Petrified by their constant battling over what once was a squabble
What once was a squabble turned into World War III
Into World War III that has lasted over six years
Six years way too long for the brothers to be fighting
To be fighting that has turned family members against each other,
Against each other so as the fighting continues, one by one
One by one they shall fall into the same turmoil as they are in
They are in a state of darkness with no where to go
No where to go and no one to turn too,
No one to turn too, so whose at fault here,
Here on the battle ground death seems to be lurking
Lurking around these helpless souls who are fighting for no cause
No cause to fight but they can't remember why they're fighting
Fighting against each other, this War has been going on far too long
Too long have I sat back and watched this family be torn apart
Torn apart from their moral mindset
Their moral mindset has been changed by too many mistakes
Mistakes that could have been avoided but they had to start a squabble
A squabble that turned into a never ending war.
