I Yield
I Yield
I do...!
I yield...!
I admit to you openly...
my lie I spilled.
I wanted to...too
knowing that I shouldn't...yet still;
emotionally left stranded...
so yeah, I yield!
A life-less dance...made
many victims I, per circumstance.
I blame not one, I've caused my own ills...
so yes I say finally, "my God I yield"!
My admittances' real...
this guilty shame I feel
...you know my heart;
so you know it won't kill.
So now here I am, seeking only your face...
reading of things I heard...being displaced
I fall to my knees pleading my case,
for you God have all power and grace.
I just know now what I didn't want to know before.
