Putting Down the Gloves

Putting Down The Gloves By MEH3 Let's put down the gloves in love and war I would rather love you instead of being at war. So, with love let's leave war behind and take each others hand while love be our guide. I mean we can keep the gloves Putting one on each other hand I'll take the left and you can be my power hand Or we can be versatile and you can set em up Allowing me to knock em out again But really just give me the gloves I'll go to war for the both us Since you are in my corner I already know we have a winning plan You can be my Cutman Keeping my wounds clean looking good, while being my Queen But remember you hold an decisive factor In order for us to win this fight I promise to bob and weave to avoid that knockout--right I only ask if I do take a punch Please don't throw in the towel Or call the fight tonight Because I’ll get back up before that ten count I'll take the beating just tell me it will be alright So let's put down the gloves but not to quit this fight instead to allow God to finish this bout And once we hear that victory bell Ding…..Ding….Ding!!! We can celebrate that we followed the Master's plan As I look back now, I understand Why He gave me your hand He knew you would not divert us just be your own Tapeman Even though we put down the gloves in love and war we have to be prepared for the art of war Because once we think we have it right the devil will try his plan To steal, kill and destroy what God had for us waiting in the palm of His hand So, let’s put down the gloves and start working on His plan #ItzMeThePoet
