Purify

Perhaps it wasn’t clear
Muddy streaks pollute the water
Purify as you stand within my aura
You got me at a loss for words

Perhaps I could have made it obvious
But no, that’s not my modus operandi
Now I’m sure you look at what I’ve wrote
Now tell me what you have to say

Too true, the rising sun could be you
The truth; I don’t want to be like the others
I won’t just insult you or try to take advantage
I can be your hero, just please say something to me.
