You Can'T Escape

Sometimes no matter what you do
you can't seem to escape the rain
there is no shade from things
that make your heart fade

Sometimes no matter how 
much you wish you didn't 
the fact still remains 
that someone else including yourself
witnessed you at your weakest

Sometimes you think your strong
enough to escape the devils evil grasp
but you fall anyway despite knowing
that it's you he has it out for

Sometimes all you can do is pray
get back up after you've made a mistake
and learn,grow and rise 
To the point where the devil can't touch you
all the sin he throws at you will 
bounce off just like their's a force field around you
I strive for this power
I pray god gods strength
because sometimes you can't escape
