Life, Death, Solitude and Resurrection (Part One)

Love brings us into conception In a crowd of thousands, perhaps millions, we are the one exception Fate, as it may seem, sets forth our inception Ending the three periods of darkness, life finally takes its unique direction Entering the world knowing not much Needfully learning, knowledge floats in front of us as our hands begin to clutch Dangerous world takes us for a dangerous whirl, as the fires of life begin to touch Soon growing larger, intricate, our lives take a turn Everything changes from there As our emotions begins to flare Recognition of life and its dark affair Lewdness, ignorance, materialism, as we are dared to stare into the eyes of the beast Years of despair, as we search for care, we yearn for the final release We look up into the stars of fate and destiny We recognize that we are tiny in the face of eternity We gaze in nature in search for serenity We wait for shooting stars for our one wish so desperately We take up faith in the Creator of All out of all necessity The stages of life are like a completely different light As our playtime becomes a violent fight Juice boxes become the alcoholic trite The pure and innocent are no longer polite The sins of the book becomes stamped in all books The smiles of exception become the smiles of deception Men achieve their wealth by all means Like a two headed animal eating the field of good and the evil field of sin And as women become teens They become harlots and strumpets selling their bodies with an unsure grin We couldn't wait to grow up, but why? We look up again at the hostile stars of fate and destiny Seeking repentance for our upcoming trial and testimony
