A Man

Fatherless homes, with children begging And in need Consumed with to much greed The lies and the factions of this deceitful Death defying, acrobats and sports Of different flavors and all kinds of forts Cannot uphold the soul which he has given away Into the moonlights day He thought it was today But it turned into night Yesterday came As it was always the same Death took his ears away And played a trick on him But it wasn’t a trick Turned away to fast To make eternity last This magician is a fool! Using this man like he was a tool But then again You have sin and then Grace abounds In the place of these clowns! This isn’t a circus If you must Know that the things that are spoken Cannot be broken The words written in red teach you How to be the man That can reach you This I hope you can understand
