The Night

Nightmares and sleepless nights
Internal spiritual fights
Everything comes alive at night
Daytime visions just don't seem right
Ghosts haunting black knights
Glimmer and shine make it seem contrite
Moses escaping Pharaoh's palace in the night
To find God, cause ain't no church in the wild alright
Coldest is the darkest night
Enlightening is the bush burning bright
Escaping demons giving chase in the night
Is there no end to this in sight?
Putting full armor on black knights
Artistically soaring colorful kites
Escaping but contributing back to the night
Tryna keep the bond of peace tight
Perseverance comes from the night
