Gods Gift
Am I a gift from god if so lord hold me
im just scared of the old me
nd even when i pray my late nights seem lonely
Friends often seem phony
And being a hot boy only brings out the cold me
I'm tired of not living only to know I'm dying slowly
They say life is a blessing I'm waiting for someone to show me
cuz life can leave shortly and even interesting things somehow now seem to bore me
Things I use to love I look at now and think that ain't for me
im stuck in the ocean only looking for the shore see
life is so short to regret or forget or accept
so i do what i want i dont believe in respect
or neglect what heck you swim only to realize once you reach the shore youre a piece of sand just a spec
in a life of ship wrecks
and lifes a long rope firmly wrapped around your neck
nd know if your life is messing up you could slip in a sec
i dont wanna live life strugglin off every check
life has a lot to offer but not for me cuz ive checked
nd ive searched from the streets to a church
ive spilled my heart in every stanza and every verse
my life feels like a movie for which i never rehearsed
so curse at the sky nd ask why am i cursed
life is a long ride but its smoother in a hearse
i want it all so bad but i question my willingness to work
i try to open my eyes when they are already wide open
wishing to wake up but im willing to keep hoping
that this is all a bad dream nd im on a bed comatose
i look at lifes doctor nd see reality hoping that they hold a dose
I rip myself to shreds and pull my heart right out of it
And see the face of the lord on it and realize I am gods gift
