Accept No Defeat

This world can be so cruel, Beat your heart down black and blue, People are heartless these days, You tell yourself you be ok, The pain can be too much, You feel fed up and you have had enough, Tears fill your eyes, Terrible thoughts race through your mind, You scream but no one hears you, So lost on what to do, Your heart aches, To let anyone in your too afraid, But you don't wanna be alone, Seeking for a place to call home, But people in time always leave, So your on your knees begging God please, Send someone to guide you through, That won't overtime leave you, Take a deep breath my friend, I offer you my hand, I'm here for you go on vent & shed your tears, Let it out my friend you can tell me your fears, When you get it all out, I want you to believe one thing without a doubt, As long as your heart beats, You have a purpose don't accept defeat.
