Life

life finds its way to tear you down
the devil holding hands with your fear
kicking the love of God to the ground


emotions running your life
never truly know what to feel next
body aches with fear


devil feeding from worry within
capturing your heart and mind
always feeding from the souls of the desperate...


always battling to find Gods way of life
trying to kick the devil to the curb 
grasping for just one more chance


life is always a battle field for you 
but you never give up
always fighting til you hit the end


you never truly know
when you lose all hope
God is always by your side

deep down you knew you 
would be able to escape 
the grip of the devil 

life always finds a way 
to tear you down
but your goal is to never give up!!!!
