See What I See

So when I’m awake my conscience-n-spirit intentionally compete, so I close my eyes but not to sleep, but 2 save my soul, from seeing this world’s complete deep deceit.

I wish I was deaf-n-couldn’t breathe, cuz hearing and breathing of this world is killing me, all I see is souls sliding up-n-down Heaven’s brass-n-golden poles, souls with no clothes.

I thought I saw me, so I open my eyes, cuz in reality its things in this world I must breathe, hear-n-see, so I live life, 4 death we will all see, so open your eyes, so you and life can rest-N-peace.

Or close your eyes but not 2 sleep, so the reality of this world wakes you up, so you see what I see.
