Baby Steps

Sometimes when I get lost

In the busy world of my thoughts

Something happens that I can’t stop

Imagine a huge game of…

Connect the dots

In a boxing ring that’s got

Those punching robots

You know…

Their heads pop off?

Everything has a reason,

Does it not?

At least that’s the story we bought

Paying attention?

Or don’t know the cost?

Please listen, this is important

Carefully, try to keep up

Satan tells me that I’m stuck

And the only thing that’ll help

Well is drugs

Has my heart tightly clutched

Waiting for my time to come

He won’t look away,

And he speaks to it in tongues

But he will no longer touch

God has surrounded it with Love

It beats to the rhythm of a new drum

A happier song that must be sung

Dancing like there’s no one

Singing ’til there’s no air left in my lungs

I’m here as One of His Sons

To spread Light and Compassion

And stop the endless fighting

I’ve had enough

Instead of attitude,

give out hugs

Compliment someone,

rather than judge

Try smiling and lose the mean mugs

Stop competing and learn to have fun

Be a Man of God,

There’s no Heaven for a thug

Treat others how you’d want…

This is all basic stuff

So why is it adults that give me the most trouble

Always having to be a bigger man

Set a good example

I can’t help it,

That’s what really sucks

Wish I could lose my temper,

Let the Beast have at least one

With His mouth and tongue

Behind teeth tightly clinched

He creates weapons of mass destruction

To slowly paralyze his victims

Like poison,

Striking mouth wide open

But He just won’t let me I guess

With patience of a Saint,

I’ve been truly blessed

O, it comes easy for me you said?

If only you were able to be in my head

You’d never be the same again

But my Heart is full of Love to spread

All I pray for before we make our own ends

We find the courage to make amends

Forgive and forget

It takes time to learn these lessons

So remember,

Baby Steps
