How I'Ve Made It This Far

As I look in the mirror what do I see A beautiful face smiling back at me Her back has been against the wall with a few options to employ Enjoyed the pleasures of happiness has in store Yet mistakes are made Odd ways make me feel convicted of good or bad decisions that day But, hey who's perfect However, never let no one kill your purpose By displaying and guiding through the true unbearable imperfects Lessons taught When you've been through it all Where you've walked the paths of doing your own thing and just talk That's why I pray before I start the day Lord help me and show me what to do or say I have to make sure nothing hinders in any way Help those who helped you And bless others in Jesus Name Even when the devil feels as of his plans are working But God sees him sliding and lurking Knowing he has one on deck just for you While he continues searching I am certain that someone is used by him daily Jesus save me for you've died on the Cross for my sins; loved me anyway when I'm failing To love and enjoy life came with a price that you already paid Yet we forget and become angry about how things came to play Understand the flesh When fed it grows strong enough to weaken the spirit and make you feel worthless As a gentleman, God looks at me And what does he see His daughter bleeding in her soul and filled with no peace but insanity Waiting for me to come to the So caught up in my noisy lifestyle decisions had made me flee Now finding my way back home Is where that smiling face comes from I've made it and have beat the odds Now things has healed and show no pseudo I'm grateful for the big and appreciate the small That's why I'm thankful of how I've gotten this far
