Can You Hear Me

Sometimes I wonder can you see me do you hear me, 
yeah I'm hurting because it's your spirit that I'm grieving, 
to the ones on the outside looking in they don't really see 
the struggle within, they don't know some days and 
weeks I literally drown in sin, and even with forgiveness 
and repentance still I ask...can you hear me, when I pray 
sometimes it doesn't feel sincere I, even I question if I'm 
suppose to be here, in the heat of the moment strength is 
what I lack and it's lack your power I fail to tap in to 
so...the flesh will always despise you. I'm better than this 
and I know it, I ate from the tree I was suppose to leave 
alone and now I'm feeling naked in your pressence my 
weakness is exposed, you built us with limitations so we 
could lean on the one who is limitless, you became a 
physician so you could make us whole from this sickness 
this goes beyond religion I surrender it all my days my 
nights my life my rights, I'm wrong you're right and I 
know you have perfect control over my life and all this 
I'm feeling is scripted I'm just asking you can you hear me 
despite of all of what I go threw...
