Lifter

Was it self mutilation or lack of self of control, That catalyzed my desperation to seperate my skin from soul. I walk alone on this sphere, broken by love rebuilt by fear, I scream against the wind but there is no one here. I'm seeing red fading into black, My full potential I've been holding back. The devil left me in this desert to die alone, In search for wisdom I will find my way back home. As I will do my best to seek You out, No compass wheel just my will and ground. With my imagination watch me win their hearts, With Your inspiration watch me win their thoughts. But my enemy is cunning he sends his dogs to watch, I count my blessing and they remind me of my have nots. It seems the more I breathe its just the more I bleed, But I won't let them break my souls sovereignty. My vision is forward and my foot steps are secure, But how much tribulation must one man endure. On my quest for hope I stumble upon swollen eyes, Lord have I not lived long enough to feel alive. Author of my life, the highest mountain that I'm belayed, Fill these pages with more than just my numbered days. So when I find peace and my eyes fall down like rain, Please let me stay and rest In Your Holiness...
