All night
All night
Bless my pains oh God
And let my memories be
That of laughter
Let my grieves be turn to testimonies
I have been living a free life
Yes I have been struggling through
My times and seasons
Am not better than my shadows
Cos my spirit echo’s to my ancestors
For my better days
The system is tearing away my body
Yet the circumstances around me is pulling my spirit up to inspiration
Why won’t I hold on
Why will I say never to my calling
Cos all day am out there
Dealing with the world
And now I can’t sleep
But keep writing
All night.
