The Apology

Ring the bells, beat the drums, and sound the horns,

Evil has been conqueror and a lost soul have became reborn,

My sunshine of light was slowly slipping away,

But I buckled down harder and bow to my knees to pray.


Dear Lord, I have sinned and shamed your name,

I allowed myself to get caught up and played in Damien's wicked game,

I was the main piece in his game the object towards his victory,

My soul was almost taken and my Faith in you was almost history.


But Lord, you did not let me slide away you grabbed hold of my hands,

And you told me, "My son do not listen to those lies because they're not your plans,"

Thank you Lord, for once again extending me your grace,

You saw and heard that I was in trouble so you swiftly got me out of the wrong place.


Tennyson, I also got to thank you for being that wonderful friend,

And even though you're not physically here I know our friendship shall never end,

You heard the words that I stated and heard my cries,

But all along you never left my side because you had your own surprise!


I had gotten so caught up in my wicked thoughts and I had needed to vent,

But I'll gladly bow down to you Lord so that I too can repent!

Forgive me Father for I had allowed myself to become misled,

I had you in my sight but I had allowed Damien to get into my head.


With your guidance and strength I know I can overcome it all,

And with my absolute Faith in you Lord I know I shall never again fall!

Also, I'll like to thank all my families and friends that showed me their concerns,

With all of yours prays and blessings the Fire Pits of Hell shall not have my soul to burn!

I have a support system that immediately came to tend to me,

And I realized the problems that I was having were not bigger the burdens of my community,

Sometimes I feel so amazed to realize that I have came so far,

And on other days feel like a pickle jammed into a gigantic jar.


But I know its my Faith in you Lord that keeps me afloat,

And within that Faith Lord I know you'll always give me hope,

Life could sometimes be as complex as the studies of biology,

However, words in their own manner could be quiet simple so Lord I hope you could accept 
my apology!


Faith is the key through Heaven's Gates
