Hell's Door

There was a time when I knocked at Hell’s door Didn’t think nothing about it just walked through and explored Was introduced to a lot, saw a lot of people with smiling faces I walked by them, they whispered behind my back but remained nameless I saw a friend of mine that I remembered at one time she had nothing I gave her opportunity and love and a chance, and I was face to face with her she must have forgotten because she started fronting Kept on walking until I ran into this dude I once knew, we talked for a while until his lies started to sound like truth The longer I walked the more I saw, I was beginning to compare it to this life, but I wasn’t surprised at all I ran into my best friend WAIT!? Why was she here? She knew all my secrets she is my heart I can’t believe this, I was overcome by a sudden fear When we was in conversation nothing change it seem like any other, Then the more I listened she became transparent this time there was no running for cover I recognized the liar, the cheater, and this mask she wore to gain attention; I stopped her in her tracks and told her to listen I already walked through the gates of hell there is no longer a reason to lie, I gave my honest opinions and loved you like I love my own life To my surprise she walked away without a comment, I understand because that’s why in Hell the soul is already burning. When I walked back through the same door I entered, I realized a lot but I couldn’t be offended. I went to the mirror to examine myself, I had some things I need to fix and yeah I could use the help That walk help me point out my faults in me, back to reality but I can only change me
