The Truth

You can only hide from the truth for so long before it finds you Walking around and doing wrong it's soon going to come due You'll no longer be able to hide what you thought was hidden I certainly don't mean to chide but it's yourself you are kidding So many before you have tried and we all see how that went So many have also lied not saying what they really had meant But it all got figured out as it ended up coming out in the wash This the end of a long tiring bout as reality finally put the kibosh Others will continue to try in going about weaving their wicked web Often using their elected clout in the allowing of such snares to ebb Crashing down they too will come and their names forever smeared For no one is really that dumb even if they end up getting cleared The truth is the best policy in that it shall never cause you to fall For the truth shall set you free in the breaking down of every wall Always have the truth by your side in each and every battle you enter Deflecting all the things that they have tried for truth is at your center

Hi Jo Daniel, praying for them is the best thing. It works wonders, or should I say we have a wonderous God. Prayer conquers armies. Take care and God bless.
