Born Again
I laid my fate on the mat of my heart
And walked the path for a brand new start
Unto a place that I once knew
I tried to tame the morning dew
Buried my past under a rock
Ignored the scorn and docked the mock
Dug my future, planted the seeds
Killed the pests and all the weeds
All that I wanted was peaceful life
I walked away from trouble and strife
The chance I had could only be one
Once I slipped, it could be gone
So I endure the prejudice and hate
I must be willing to make the wait
For the rising of my morning sun
To blast the cast and have my fun
