Morning Star

The devil is in hearts of the many too afraid to be themselves 
That are first to face the tune of day's clock 
With wickedness thrained their dereliction can't stop
They're prudently persistent about the way you do things 
Having absolutely no concept of love or compromising
When they finish destroying what they could 
They move on to another
So when you see him sneering back at you 
Across the table at the bar 
Know it's him the snake breeching the weeds 
The unholy morning star

Don't let pride blind your own self evaluations we all fall short of His glory and to think of oneself as infallible is stupendously ignorant and invalid. All great men/women made their positive impact on society with a single thought and this I know is my turning point. We all live our past, present and future simultaneously in unison and know what the outcome really is. Just be that person you know you are and God will provide everything for you. Sometimes it just takes patience or the act of forgiveness to put things into place and perspective. Much love everyone!!! -Ryan
