I Will Stay Strong

A burning in my soul 
I long for you to hold 
Sacred trust within 
I lived a life of deception and sin 
Deep within I sinned 
But now I must win this race 
I can do it at gods pace 
I won't do wrong 
I will stay strong 
Fear and doubt won't 
Change my route 
I release myself 
From this affliction 
I break the addiction 
Of sin that was in my life 
Trapped in nothing but the dark 
I must make my mark.
