The Natural Man

Tomorrow I'll awake and slip into my threads the epiphanies of tonight I'll probably lose that train of thought a garden of delight but the problems of tomorrow life will choose I'll have made my decisions life to change like those who swear off a habits lent but when I awake the flesh will rule and for its desire time will be spent I can tie my shoes not even thinking the customs of my fathers not forget every path of life is set before us but living without reasoning I'll regret If I do not reflect upon all history or upon the strand of life I live I'm doomed to failure of its mystery if attention to its standards I not give But so embedded in my body its demands that wars with my minds intelligence though I know of carnalities commands my will power will make light of its pretense So only of my own needs will I seek I'll not consider your life or your duress for I only look upon the man in mirror and of all its lies I'll not confess My focus will be only what I can see its mind not be shaped by what I do for the spirit belonging to the carnal man will never seek or rely upon what's true I will flatter myself and you with praise I'll not recognize how insipid its emptiness unfortunately I'll prattle on its savor or to fill what is empty I'll not address With assertions of the common beliefs invoke for upon my peers I lavish jest what's intricate has likely suffered broke for this is why you'll never see my best I plan to fill my life with pleasures song for the universe cares not about my grave there is no such thing as right or wrong so with merriment I choose my road to pave Alas my self centered mind I'll not dispense the struggle of its strife too hard to fight I have no shield for all my lacks defense in all of this I've failed my own insight I will speak to you as though I really care but you know in truth not a dime I'll spend because of course all know life's not fair like all actors only my role will I defend So there you have it a nutshell If I do any good at all I'll want its praise for I have set to establish my own glory and to be written on your memory my days source 1Cor 2:14 , but read the whole chapter Romans 10:3 COPYRIGHT © 2012 C.
