Respect
Sometimes in anger words are said
Rage prevails, venom flows
The bitterness inside your head
Your heart is cold, your feelings froze
You fight those feelings from inside
It is ripping you apart
You put your common sense aside
With hatred in your heart
You've never known respect at all
In this angry life you live
You built your dreams and watched them fall
Never learning how to give
Reach out for Him and take His hand
Let your heart in His reside
It was for you the cross He manned
It was for you He died
If you have faith, if you believe
Hang on till the hurt has past
You'll find respect and no longer grieve
You'll find peace and love at last.
