Legacy

Here you come barging in Like a nightmare, you inscribe A disease I'm unaware of Slowly killing from the inside Trying to invade my life once more Asking for a second chance But the fat lady's already sung And the dancers have done their dance Yet the memories are still never ending And your face continues to haunt me The pain still fights to wedge in deeper While ghosts of your words echo loudly "Turn back" they slither with grins in their spikes "Your new life isn't really all that. Besides your troubles will follow you wherever Just look at all the hurt you attract" "Ponder it a moment and you'll concur Our survey is most accurately true For even if you ran to the ends of the earth Your past would catch up to you" "So try as you might, your doomed to fail Disappointment you will foresee Because even if you try to change Your sure to follow your family tree." "You're wrong!" The young one shouted back "For in Christ I have been reborn Those lies are no longer bound to me From my old life I am now torn" "Your words of death are no match for me For my daddy is the father of light He's taken my future into his hands And my story is Gods to rewrite." "So be gone demons of mischief and torture And say hello to my new destiny I've forfeited the footsteps laid long before And in Him have a fresh legacy."
