True Cleaning

What you feed will surely grow Take it from someone who truly knows Too bad you can’t exfoliate your insides with some microdermabrasion That kills all your pride Stripping away the degenerate mindset that so often tries to hide Too bad you can’t take foaming cleanser and remove the impurities from your soul So many are worried about the external but that will never make you whole There is no baking soda or deep pore treatment that can wash away your sins Nothing of this world can detox you from the poison that dwells within There are no feminine cleaning wipes that can wash away the filth of your former days Only heavens rain can lead you out of that twisted cycle, and maze What you feed will surely grow Take it from someone who truly knows This is not a theory or a planned-out petition It’s a willing act of daily submission We all surrender to something Why not let it be truth There are no quick results, life is not a photo booth What you feed will surly grow Take it from someone who truly knows For every word plants a seed And every seed yields a crop And if you want to end up at the top There are some things that you must stop! your type of fertilizer matters when its your garden that needs nutrition All those weeds eventually will kill off all of your ambition Everything needs care Or eventually won’t be there Everything needs healing or the thief will keep on stealing Everything needs water To keep life in its proper order And everything needs you To fight for things to be brand new.
