Hope In Hopeless

Hope in Hopeless

Hope for the hopeless, you make me rise above the crowd
Watching the dawn for the forgotten and dusk for the greedy
My soul sinking in error, still you endorse me in your unfailing love 
Building broken bridges, still stretch your soul into darkness for me
Deeper and deeper you go into my pride, disgrace, greedy and failure
Why and how could, would you love me without reciprocity 
Yes you are my Hope in Hopelessness; yes you are the path to the pathless

Inhaling and exhaling bitterness, betrayal busted the fragile me
Led me into the solitary caves, covering my covetousness
Walking in shadows, hiding from reality because the truth knows me
Shallow perceptive perpetuated my oblivious to the truth of tomorrow
So I have put my faith in fear and failure, forsaken the path of life/light
As the fish, I have forgotten to live in water- beyond my life is Grace 
Yes you are my Hope in Hopelessness; yes you are the path to the pathless

I see the vivid of his illumination yet I still walk is the sleuths of my being
So I tell my soul come back into the surreptitious of the most high
So should I die to myself and be raised in Faith, Hope and Love
Yes in this chamber of hope the dead bodies receive souls back
My experience is bad yet my expectation is rejuvenated, fabulous
Hold on; hold up, your struggles will be your strength for tomorrow
Yes you are my Hope in Hopelessness; yes you are the path to the pathless
