Have the Strength To Change

It’s an optimistic opportunity, not a burden
I want to talk to you cheerfully all of the sudden

I want change
I’m just so strange

I have the strength to better myself to change all of me
If I put my bewildered mind to it in pure ecstasy and liberty

Freedom beats me down in this tranquil town
And rises me up with an upside down frown

It’s a pessimistic tragedy, not feeling a ten
I tend to isolate myself honestly once again

I have the weakness to estrange me from you
If I can have a heart, I’d be set free from rue

We have purpose and if we can achieve it,
Do it…we have the legitimate reason to be lit

In humility and love
From high up above

Sensational sympathy helps me a lot, helps me a lot
Dedication to empathy copes with my emotions of naught

Fire me up with graciousness
Inspire me down to Earthiness

Calm my palms
With biblical Psalms

Clasp my hands upon your blessed, brazen bosom
Grasp how much I understand my feelings of numb

Let go of me,
The ugliness of envy

Have the strength to change, the strength to be strange
Rearrange the adoration beyond a rageful, radiant range

Believe in me
Reflect on thee

Kingdom come, Kingdom come
That’s the change that I’ll become
