The Adverse World Complete

I can’t stand getting worse and worse by the fast-paced minute
So, set me free from me, colliding and breaking bit by bit
Show me the way in which I should go, Lord of Light
Show me the day in which I need to move on with Your might

Betrayed by the darkness and its depthless despair
Where were you when I was a child without a single care?
Father, where were you when my mother brought me up with loving affection?
Dad, why did you leave me for another and got me upset with lost direction?

You never watched me grow up strong and courageous
You never saw me flourish with a family of talent so numerous
You will never be like me, dad, and you were a sick, hateful man from the start
You should thank me for living life abundantly, even with a bitter heart

I can’t take this countless beating of doubt anymore
All the things you’ve done to me was abandonment times an infinity
I can’t shake off this tension that hits me to the core
All will turn to wings of flight in no time — I must figure out a way to be free

You’ll find out that I’m a hefty man of my word
I will not betray you or forsake you like my father would
He’ll be out of my mind for good like a free bird
You’ll kindly see and acknowledge me like you should

I’m on the edge of shattering to shards of worthlessness —
That’s when I had hardly any hope and faith in mind, soul and heart
I need His knowledge to set me free from wickedness —
That’s how I’ll get through the day without tearing apart in a deathcart

Vanish away the temptations of my human nature
Replace it with an adverse world of an enduring cure
Complete me with God’s harmonic, angelic tunes
Release the sad butterflies out of their captive cocoons

We’re extremely distant, 
Yet so close in an instant
I wish we were closer together forever
In this adverse world, getting better
I wish we were closer together forever
What is it like to live in an adverse world in an instant?
What is it like to live in an adverse world that is significant?

Your voice of rejoicing, love of mine,
Makes me melt with mesmerizing delight
Your choice of words are so damn fine
It makes me beg on my knees in His light

Your words of pleasure are painted upon my heartstrings
It brings me happiness abound with fantastic wings
The night stands tall like a mighty knight
As we collide hands, so young and bright

There’s a rather fine, silver lining between us
We’re on the same rowdy, yet happy-go-lucky bus
I hate to pretend that my past isn’t present…
But it is and I must accept it as such and be repentant

Living obediently and having delightful dreams of reality is our future
I was an alcoholic drug addict that wanted satisfaction to last
I’ve been constantly abused mentally, physically, emotionally and in all aspects of life, but it doesn’t stop me from finding His cure to endure
Will I ever be free from this world of woefulness? I am as robust as a radiant river amongst the valley so vast

It hurts me to say all this, but at the same time it is helpful and healing
Dealing with this distress and anger inside isn’t completely appealing,
But it’s getting me through the day with my head up above the surface
It’s slowly but surely getting me out of my comfort zone and making me feel less worthless — completed by never-ending success

I can’t wait to see and experience another tomorrow with you,
Abiding by my side like an angel of gratitude would
You’re the adverse world complete in my eyes of clear blue
Let’s live this life to the best of our abilities like we should

~Dedicated to and inspired by AJP~
