Poem
Looking around Its dark not one sound Why keep coming this way? Like your here to stay Asking praying lord please show you the way Been here before Many times Trying to find a way out and the meaning of life Is life suppose to be this hard? People wonder why many keep up there guard They wear the Whole! Armour of the Lord Plenty snakes they lurk and wait People stare while gossip about you in your face Years pass and still judge by your race They say Black is just poverty for a generation What a disgrace Use to be whites that was killing blacks Now they watch While blacks kill blacks Thats a fact No not racist just this place A world full of hate Wasnt born with it but taught Wanna run away Cant find a safe place Keep calling on Jesus Seems he doesnt hear your cries Like he's turned the other way The devil wants you to lose faith But nope! Just be patient, sit here pray and wait This life is a maze Some find a way out some trap in its space Many give up and some just lose faith Is this the meaning of life Its a battle, a fight Trying to live right But seeems no matter what you do Not enough it gets rough Your already down many try to keep you there Thats when they barely come around Are show there old face Hate to see you blessed But we got to keep faith This life is only a test As for the rest god has a plan For eveything done accordingly To man done with his hand So stand in that place God put you there for a reason Its only for a season pray for mercy and grace Seeking, searching dont give up dont lose your mind This to shall pass away like time One day youll find your way And know the meaning of 6.
