Break Away From Your Perdition Illusion

Arise from shackles of darkness Sometimes choking your light Pinching happiness and meekness Coercing you against your will to fight Light as the way to salvation you choose to lose Amid shadows in your doors that lengthen For no reason as your serenity they bruise To lose direction when you fail to strengthen The faith that insulates gout and doubt In terms of tribulations and trials Sneaking away when sprouts of clout In miasmas of betrayals and mistrials Catch you off guard When providence pleas enjoin you to retrace steps Back home, back to basics where once again you regard Faith and communion as verity pillars whose footsteps Strengthen knees gone groggy Assailed by misdirection and misconception you nurture Egged on by illusions and delusions in foggy Seasons and prisons that your conscience they capture and rupture Leaving you a mere shell bereft of the spiritual stuff That once rescued you from vacillation When the going went tough Springing an oscillation mission You ought to vaporize When on bended knees You pray for spiritual help to realize You way back to the fold where salvation keys Direct you to swim once again in waters of formidable faith That renews your reason and vision As you brace to grace Spirit of Truth in every breath You take to break away from your perdition illusion.
