Darkness envelops Veins of fire rend the abyss God’s awemazing works

I’ve never wrapped My mind around Making you feel Seen, heard, and found I didn’t know

Always lived a life that’s been Filled with devils, marked by sin Never thought my darker side Be the thing that brings you light

Told you that we’d last forever Told you that we’d always be Told you we could count on never How could I be so naive Only those that want a tether

If they push you Push back And go for the throat

I’ve written things and said some… Wagged my tongue and tripped over… Flapped my gums 'til blue in the f… Never a clue how to win the race Huffed and puffed and circumstance…

Ev’rything about my life Tells me that you’re poison If you’ve ever heard of me You know I don’t listen

Lord and Jesus Christ Don’t forget the lice Spiders, ticks, and skeeters All the heeby-jeebers They’ve got their own place

It’s never been about the same I’ve always played a diff’rent gam… And when you think you’ve got me n… I’ll show you something unexplaine…

I am a Libra, can’t you see The meaning of dichotomy The this and that, the you and me The balance and disparity

Each moment at hand Is open invitation To the promised land

I am not an actor That is plain to see I am just a shepherd Tending to his sheep Try to keep them safe from

I’ve never known The salve of rest I’ve only felt Drums in my chest And when I think

You’re the bestest bud Anyone could love And your soul shines through All the doom and gloom Fortunate to have

Just being yourself Is the absolute best way To show the world love
