My Father's Pen

The ink flows in my veins, it drips as I cry I figured life was joy I was wrong, for there is much evil walking in our streets Lies upon lies, death herself points at me Who am I to pretend of joy, when I break inside I bleed, I shall not bare any seed O' how I desire to be a father yet I weep I may not see the day Cast unto me your burden as I drown in tears already half dead and all I have is my name Why must I deny to be poor, to be worth nothing As I, who am I Father embrace me as I break In the eyes of the inocent I see myself being judged beyond content And I fall to my knees as I know death will swallow my dreams She will sit on my hopes to be Will I too go down as nothing in history Let the pages be blank, write in my name as I love my name It marked me when I was born and the first ray of light and sin crept into my eyes I see not tomorrow I can't peek into the sunset for I am consumed by sorrow Plea, O' Father I plea to Your name Deliver me from this heart ache Free me so that I may at last find peace I drown lower in strife and and I grow weak Will You strengthen the ones who shall see me pass and love me? I beg, to my humble view Father I trust in You The clouds spit onto me, as I Eduardo is the name you gave me and I shall embrace it for You my God are my all Age sit on me, and I grow in time seeing twenty-one years of life I cry out For my future, as I am to be what? I sing, and I weep to my pain Will tomorrow bring me back, or will I still fear the rain I love my name, Eduardo, Father I am your pen Allow not the ink that flows in my vains to dry Surely You know that if it does I will die Father in your keep I leave my life as You gave it me, only You can take it Amen.
