Change

It’s been so hard living life in addition to facing 

Many of life’s storms I have had countless 

Battles full of ups or downs I have come to far 

Just to say I quit now.

I wasn't born by a river but every since I made
My way on to the scene it seems that my soul
Has been running towards an endless goal.

I can't  remember the many loved ones 

In addition to all of the so called friends that 

Have come and gone, there are countless

Reasons that’s why I still stand here alone

With only my faith keeping me strong.

In my mind I seem to have the biggest fight 

About whether to live like the world or get 

Left behind, I’d rather live right with you 

God than go along with the rest of the world 

This truly would please me.

To live a life with love, peach plus 

Understanding would be nice, rather than one 

With no remorse or regret for all the wrong I 

Would be doing, I read in your word what 

Waits for me once I die but that’s only if 

I stay true to your word for you so 

I will live for you as well as die.

I have wanted to throw in the towel so many 

Times but you have always sent a word to 

Reassure me that I can win, that’s why I keep 

On moving forward because I know a change 

Will come just as long as my walk is with you.

I know soon I will look back on the many 

Battles I have made it through all because 

I let you fight for me, the road may be long

But I will stay true to you until my change 

Comes through.
