His Presence

Your favour and mercy very tender 
Why you give them to me i still wonder
Then i realise its the grace am under
It does all things for me even clears your anger
Which helps me cry Abba-father

Your voice i hear in silence 
Sometimes i doubt with pretence 
Knowing fully well its you
Waiting for what to do

My very thought you read
Providing the things i need
All i ever ask is for you to take the lead
And be my guardian
Or give me a custodian

So as not to be a weed 
Which is uprooted and made a feed
But make me a mammoth 
That people can stay around and build a small hut

Undying Love

Every river has its source but we tend to forget our very fountain
Aiming for the highest mountain
Causing a great disconnection
To our fountain he has given unlimited connection
To the throne of grace
But the rejection is written all over our face

He died for us before creation
Regardless of your colour race or nation
We deceive our selves that we continue in the part he left behind
But our LIFESTYLE shows that we never had his love in mind
Before we carry out an action he has already shown us his mercy
But our reaction towards his love makes everything messy

With our actions speech and thought we spit at his face
Insulting both him and his throne of grace
All he did was to bring salvation
For Gods most feared creation
Just to save us from eternal condemnation

We go to church and make noises
Deceiving ourselves that we are singing praises
It is not compulsory you give your life to him
When you do your life becomes a film
Making him the director and producer
All you need to be is the major character

Many of prefer to bow rather than burn unlike Shedrach Meshach and Abednego
Giving names to sin pretending they are not the same just because we don’t want to let go
When we lie we say its diplomacy
Forgetting that God was never in support of democracy
We take God for granted
Rejecting the word he planted
Just for nothing but uttermost vanity
Due to nothing but our act of cruelty

Lifes Reality

The up bringing of a child could be very stressful and annoying 
And i object to the postulation that it is regretful and boring
It is flavoured with some life changing experiences that is beyond imagination
Which can not be gotten from any earthly recreation
You can object to my observation

But my earthly experience and research has given me this hypothesis 
Even if am not making a strong analysis 
The earth is filled with great disgust  

Should we expect more or worse 
We take no action nor feel remorse 
We cant't change the past
It all started so fast
We think of what the futre has in mind 
Instead of correcting the mistakes we left behind

Pay the Price

You are not ready to work for the money
Yet you want your life taste like that of the honey
Alot have tried to get acting cunny
But the end result is catastrophic tragic and never funny
 

Make good use of your today
To avoid in your tomorrow unwanted delay
Which can alter your mind and change your way
Making you live in depression and anger everyday


You cant sight what I see
Because you have only swimmed in a pool, not a sea
The noise of success is never pleasant
But its never heard by a peasant.

Dreams

A connection to the spiritual life 
Stronger than any physical strife
Some say you are not real 
So treat you with great fear and zeal


You speak to us about what is coming 
Sometimes about what is happening 
The unfortunate thing is that we pay no attention 
Due to our malevolent ego and intention 


You are the best thing that ever happened to man 
Coming immediately after we traveled under a fan 
Some of us are fortunate to remember 
Every single one from January to December

Innuendo of Love

I bade farewell to love with the experience with my ex
Who almost killed me with the pestering of sex
Left my past behind
As the search for love filled my mind

Then approach me an angel from above
Having the traits of a dove
Thought i had found the perfect match
As thoughts erupted in my mind to have found the biggest catch

On my breast i felt his torch
Sarcastically i said its not too much
At a stage it seemed like a rape
That moment he was more disgusting than a ape

I realised he loved to play rough
Then showed him the stuff i was made of
Pretended to give a blow job
Only to bit him like an angry cub

Broken But Woken

if i had known she was this dangerous i would have taken caution 
but all i did was to come with a sincere notion 
having no form of deceit
yet all i could get was a horrible defeat
 
did i ever having you ?
did ever lie to me when i thought your words were true?
did you ever exist or it was all a fantasy?
when think her all that comes to my mind is jealousy

thinking of such an experience makes me nervous 
waking up again to worse complexity 
if she comes again would i ever be serious 
when the first experience gave me immeasurable anxiety

all i can do is to warn you from falling into her trap 
because the sound of her voice is like an harp 
soothing the ears and the mind
living you clueless about what is behind

even if you run she is still at your back
predicting the next step you would take
don't ever make the choice of going for an attack
that is the biggest mistake you would ever make 

she opened my eyes to life
making me question the importance of a wife
after the moment we had
the pleading and tears after getting mad

thought we were meant for each other 
making what we shared the first of every order
it all came so fast 
but now its all in the past

Dire Guilt

It fills my heart all day long
Sometimes I ask what have done wrong
What it is, I can’t deliver with my tongue


Most times I get them in my bed
They never sieze coming true my head
At times they act dead
When I behave like a nerd


Too much to think of
Before you wake up it already takes off
My greatest desire is to turn it off


How long would I fight with you
You work on the past and nothing new
Received enough wet blanket your time is dew

What I Wished For

The sky is blue 
every one knows this to be true
but my love for you
is more than saying I DO


these are the words he said to me
covering is actions and intentions like covered tea
acting as the man i wanted him to be 
painting the picture i always wanted to see


the tears in my eyes are beyond full
making me regret i was ever faithful  
breaking my heart and pride 
but has left my eyes opened wide


all i feel is nothing but pain
with nothing to gain 
would i ever again fell the same 
with the way he made my heart a game 
living me to sink in the sea of shame 


i try to think of forgiveness 
but all that comes to my heart are the words of revenge 
yet my spirit can't stand such wickedness
making another person pass through such twinge

Be Still

Life is good
That only comes from a joyous mood
For we the peasant 
Life can never be pleasant
To survive we steal
Only to hear the words BE STILL

In our heart we think of solutions
All our heart could give us is earthly pollutions
What is the essence of life?
When we face nothing but strife
No one knows the way we feel
All we hear is BE STILL

We have heard these words before
We can’t stay still anymore
Planning to end our troubles with a rope
But these words planted in us the seed of hope
To our troubles we became steel
 Finally we valued the words BE STILL


The speaker of these words we do not see
Yet our problems he made a cup of tea
Because of him we live
Finally having a reason to believe 
Our broken heart he promised to heal
Only if we hold our peace and BE STILL
