Healed
There was a time in my life
Filled with hate, filled with stife
Felt the weight of the world, let it break my back
So I went on the attack, venomous words with no tact
I would simply react with no thought but my own
A heart turned to stone, I wailed and I moaned
Feeling oh so alone, it was me against them
My cup runneth over, hot hate to the brim
A house of hurt is no home for a soul
I dug a grave but didn't even fit in the hole
So now at this time in my life
I'm blessed with my kids, blessed with a wife
I see the world as a whole, i'm glad to be back
Running a new course. a positive track
My words I use, think through twice, maybe thrice
I try to be nice, and hope to entice
Others to do the same, this life is a gift
Too short for anger and blame, rise and uplift
