Justified

Their actions have their consequences, Why bother putting up my defenses? It won’t make me feel better, even if I cried… But God will keep me justified. I ignore their jokes and take no action, Why should I give them the satisfaction? They may weaken my strength or injure my pride… But God will keep me justified. They never show remorse for the things they say, Why should I take offense to their ignorance anyway? They don’t know how I feel, so melancholy inside… But God will keep me justified. No matter how hard I try to ignore it, I can’t block it out of my mind, Their cruelty replays itself over in my head, as if it’s on rewind, They make me want to disappear, I want to run and hide, But God will keep me justified. Their taunting only proves that they don’t respect me, Why should I take it personally when I know it doesn’t reflect me? Although I want to punish them, I just let it slide… But God will keep me justified. They got out of control this time, And now they have to pay for their crime, No longer will I let this be…my justice will not be denied… God will keep me justified They say they’re sorry…I wonder if they meant it? It doesn’t matter anyway…they’ll still have to repent it, One day they’ll have to see the truth and open their eyes wide…. Either way…God kept me justified.
