Redemption (Cont.)

I’ve been good, I’ve been bad Both Holy and Evil -- I am man – An angel in denial My life I have defiled The road to redemption I will end, still on trial Not for my sins But for those who still sin For those who still hold an opinion Where mine could have made theirs different I must speak to those who seek “The meaning of life is to give life meaning” Careful of your choices, life can be deceiving Do not stray left, do not stray right Go straight ahead and you will find Everlasting life --- if you choose to subdue To a miraculous find, the spirit within you Waiting for the moment To come out to the open Knowledge can be ignorance If you don’t know these words being spoken Now….have you chosen The order of sequence On the knowledge you now take in? Or are you still confused Living for tomorrow on yesterdays news Are you like the rest of the fools? Or are you better. Better than no other Suffocate you with the truth I leave you smothered. Make peace with yourself Your mother, father, sister and brother Can you conceive the “things of” that I speak? Or are they just a memory in a dream And you wake up not remembering -- Feel the sting? – The sting of knowing your soul could be burning -- Ready to sing? – Rejoice in the choice that your life is still promising “To be or not to be…” Truly is the key Continue on with your life and we shall see --- -- Boz –
