Needing a Tow

I'm trying to breath but it's hard to, living in this world like being trapped behind d- oor corner. Seeking for a light but still it's like living in a night where a day will never come, really, yeah, I'm stucked like a car in need of a rope to be pulled to its owner. Who is with heart to take me to the hills, ma- ybe I can see a clear view than this mist I'm faced with, my tears simply means you are t- he one I need to get help from,come hold my hand maybe this journey won't be so hard like when I was alone. They said,' two can accomplish twice as much one can; they get a better return for their labour .' If two under same blanket can gain warm from eachother, then how one can; now I need you, for strange nights and seasons are coming, this is a task I must work out like ants preparing for winter, better early than late. I did try to run but it was like just walking,did try to see but just before my toes, opened my ears and heard nothing. I'm living in a cage of pains so you come take me out, there's no cure without someone's hand to reach for help, I'm burning like a siner thrown in hell, oh,God help me. I'm being insulted like a dog, come this voices are hurting my ears I can't even focus on what I'm doi- ng ,give me a drop of water even if it can be with a tip of a nail I would appreciate that; this place is fire ,I'm lost I can't even tell this is a place I killed a boy in my within to a man I'm, oh,I'm shouting come and tow me up; can't face all this ridicules,isolation,enmi- ty,stupidity,and such death alone, God come save my soul. You chose me not only this world,you had a purpose about me,now let me be fruitful before mankind to fu- lfill what was said by you when I was still in a womb of my mother,let me not feel so trapped, take me into your house like you did to David, let me fight with faith for things I desire like Jacob/James did, give me power, Oh,Lord that I may not be towed but to tow myself up, let me burn like fire where no evil would take chances about my soul, for my body is your church.Oh,I need you Lord.
