Beautiful Spirit

There is a beautiful spirit, that glows in my soul
It once was dark and had nothing but hurt
The hurt was so toxic, it consumed everything, I touched 
And begun to grow branches to really taint my soul
I wanted to die, I had many reasons why, I looked toward the sky
And asked for forgiveness and told the lord i will try
Try to be humble and forget the past that lead me to cry
