"Life"

"Life" 7/29/08

In the world there are people
Some of them survive
Most of them will try
but soon they will die

There are few who choose right
There are few like us
Few who will fight
and few we can trust

God said he had a plan
He created us with Love
From the ashes came men
Standing six feet above

He blessed us with Gifts
Food, shelter, and Health
So we could be free
Free from our selves

Deep down we show greed
Anger and frustration
We became the Devil's seed
of God's greatest creation

Created to be pure
Descendants from Angels
Blessed only without wings
So all could be neighbors

but the truth was evident
As it always is
The snake would seep through
and soon ruin our bliss

Now on our own
We start to realize
Pain hurts our bones
We are far from paradise

Then our minds expanded
From agonize and aching
Nothing is given to you
You have to do some taking

First Our minds be clear
You have to clean the shelves
of hate, pain, and fear
Which hide inside ourselves

We start to open our eyes
Ears are now our tools
We see and we hear
To make our own rules

The next step is Life
You live the path you choose
You choose the path you walk
Often one that soothes

We were all created perfect
Just remember that
If you make a wrong turn
Never look back

God knew we were different
So he began to give
We all make him proud
When we choose to live

Remember where you came from
No matter who you are
Appreciate your life
and God will take you far
