My Pathway

The path thats paved for me 
Starts with the first gasp of breath 
Along the path are obsticals in wich i cant see
My destiny to life or death 
I say its lifes choices  
I say it is a part of life 
I listen to my inner voices 
Watching for the ones bearing the knife

For This Day

I bid to sleep to death
For i have lived a life of wealth
No riches attached,but gaiety dwells
For this sorrow in me swells
Oh creator! I bid your take
The life in me forsake
For this life is a tempt
That draws upon to him,the world's attempt
My wish is to go away
Away! Lead me not  astray

Young

Im still young
Not even old enough to drive
Don't know whats right or wrong
Haven't experienced all of life
The huge obsticles of life have yet to come my way
Enjoying being young and living life
Can keep my head up
Nowing that im still young
Nowing that life isn't hard enough for me yet
Loving the fact that I am free to do what I want
Loving the fact that I am still YOUNG

Today

Looking up to God
trying to explain that life is hard
 His vision was lost within the translation
even He can't see the light
 Life goes on without pause
nobody understands the cause
 Juveniles carrying sawed offs
it seems humanity is lost
 Corporate monopolies 
crippling the economy
 Legal systems have become a failure
giving more time than people lived
 Creating second class citizens
building upon the poor

That's the Best I Can Do

What could I give to Him, 
what do I have ?
What could I give to Him
that He does not have ?

I'll give my life to Him
that's the best I can do.
All broken and tattered,
I know He'll  make it new.

Now that my life is His,
what do I do ?
Now that my life is His,
I'm surely starting out new.

I'll keep my trust in Him,
that's the best I can do.
Wherever He leads in life,
I trust He'll see me through.

The Value of Life

The Value of Life 
Life cannot be measured using a dollar sign… 
There are no lengths of time 
That increase the value of a life  
Life is a gift 
A gift that is immeasurable 
For even the brightest of minds… 
A reflection of the minutes that we 
Share with others…… 
The impact that we make when 
We encounter others for even a brief second.  
Life is reamarkable........ 
The air we breath 
is the very establishment of life...

Life

Half of the time life is "Great", 
the other half its full of sorrow 
and pain.....
Just find a way to deal with 
it......
Look at life as a game 
sometime you win sometime 
you lose but just know that its 
what ever 
you make out of it....find 
yourself before someone ealse 
do...and befor you know it they 
have you into there hands like 
putty in a bottle.......
Life aint nothing to 
regret...NEVER....but it does 
get hard but keep your head up 
at all time...
God bless
