The Keeper of My Life

The keeper of my life 
I grew and that was crime
They hate me and then I grew
So they have a better reason
To crucify me 
Always they pursue me 
Yet I run faster ahead 
Of their trap 
And leave them wondering
How my life is possible

The keeper of my life 
All of a sudden 
I was a light from 
The a very deep darkness
And this was my spiritual
Crime 
Cos they are shock 
To see my light in their 
Mirrors 
They watch me how I grow 
Despite how hard they press
Me down 
I still remain stubborn
I still remain a magic
They never can comprehend

The keeper of my life 
I am living
So my existence
Is a problem to them 
My personality destroys
Their atrocities so now am wanted
Beyond their secret zone 
So I keep running 
Trying to maintain my distance
From evil 
Yet they keep it closer 
To my door 
Cos they never wish me 
A better person 
And that means my fight 
Continues to this day 
And if am at last a victor
Just please do remember
That all the way God was 
The keeper of my life
