Is it Me?

To this day everyday, 
I ask:  is it the devil and God
Fighting for my soul
Or is it my mind sliding left or right?

Hurricane erupt from every thought 
Or is it every illusion?
Maybe a challenge of with
Or a chess game predestined?

I ask and pray 
And I fail and fail.
A bastard to be sure, 
But why no concrete in this wall of doubt?

Grateful I predate the roe and wade 
by exactly 5 years...
Never a perfect moment, 
Save the alcohol on my breath.

So tomorrow I may rise
Tomorrow I may not
In God we trust 
My love and lust
