A Simple Rhyme
Out with the old
And into the new
Coming from black
And turning it blue
Getting through hate
Giving it with love
Coming up from hell
Going to heaven above
Your arms are closed
The wings spread wide
Telling the truth
Turning them to lies
Going from rich
Ending in poor
Never say less
Forever is more
Going from dark
Stepping into the light
What is done wrong
Must make it right
From the brightest day
To the darkest night
Losing a battle
Winning a fight
humans are weak
God is might
coming from sight
going blind
what is yours
is now mine
us wanting
is to have
dont be sad
just be glad
do smile
please dont frown
going from deaf
hearing those sounds
what was white
is now black
this is this
that was that
walking tall
feeling small
maybe weak
but its strong
feeling regret
praying for hope
listen to the do's
never the don'ts
please be quiet
don't make a sound
i hate the city
but love the town
i once was born
and soon i'll die
this is what i call
a simple rhyme
