Cannot Lose

"Can't Lose"

  Today as I sit in this bed with my head hanging low, I begin to think about the struggle I go through and how i want to blow. 
  It seems as if I just can't win for losing, it's like everytime i take steps forward I always take a brusing. 
  So as I think about these things in my life I drop to my knees and pray, I just want to think my good Lord for blessing me with another day. 
  For every action that I make I know that there is a price to pay, but i keep my faith in the Lord and ask that he will show me the way. 
  When you look at my face, deep into my eyes, I plead my case. The terrible life will soon erase, said my Lord, as I run my race. 
  Many years I'm thankful to see, just how blessed I am to be, many blessings yet to see, just what the Lord has in store for me..
  So today as I sit in this bed thinking about wat he gave me and how its not going to waist, I thank my Lord cause im not going to be another sad case.
  Most things will subside, but his gifts last forever, I'm at peace with myself, I can't lose, things are getting better....
