I  have faith  In my God In myself  In my loved ones In my future  You have faith  In your God   In yourself  In your loved ones In your future  We have faith  In our God In ourselves In our loved ones In our future  Faith shall never be lost  For it exceeds all life's cost We hold that value inside us Crosses we bear become a plus  Now spread faith to the world  So that our lives are pearled 

I  often wonder  Would I have felt bro                                   ken If I had a been fathered? Bro       ken, many little boys  Now, growing into men feel My father lives yet  He hid from his responsibilities  Choosing addiction over manhood  I don't want to be like that  I can't allow myself to be like that  Some boys grow up with no father  My heart goes out to them  But they still can be men  WE can be men WE can be women My mother fathered me It took some time to realize this  Giving me the tools  To cultivate a whole spirit  A woman or a man  Can be our father figure Or our mother figure  YOU can be your father figure  YOU can be your mother figure We don't have to be broken

Baby, don't turn me down, Don't push me away. Baby, when I'm asking you to stay Don't tear me down, don't get mad at me. Girl, if there was any other way That I could make your world mine. I'd do it in no time, I'd make you all mine. Honey, I'll be your man. I'll always take your hand. I'll be here for you baby. If you only knew how true I was. You got nothing to lose  But those useless worries. Baby don't turn me down. Don't push me away. Baby, when I'm asking you to stay Don't tear me down, don't break my heart. When I call your name and I pull you in closer. I look you in the eyes and whisper in your ear. Baby I love you and I hope you're always true. You have my heart, my whole world is in your hands. Baby, don't break me down Don't push me away. Baby. when I'm asking you to stay. Don't leave our love, Sitting right here on the dock of the bay...

There were times  We didn't need a reason to cry Nor had motives to care Holding hands bridged our souls And an embrace tunneled hearts Cheek kisses as an evening's cliffhanger Street lamps weren't a mere passerby When the moon shone upon our whispers of love, Sex, death, pastries, sarcasm There were those times once But not now

Pray to God A spirited love  Awakens all, us May her soul Wash over me Cleanse all hate  Erase all pain Dirty hands gone Light from eyes Purify my blood Feet stand strong Pray to God Wash over me Wash over us  Be with us  Today and forever

If I put pain in your heart Tore us apart Rubbed you  Blue  I mean no harm  Don't ring the alarm Please forgive me  I couldn't see  Blinded by my own pain I blamed the rain Everyone I distrusted My soul felt busted  It wasn't you I was blue My reaction  Was defensive action  Fear  Of what was near Please forgive me I couldn't see If I spoke  Words that made you choke  If I wasn't there  No time to spare  Didn't give you a hug When you put down a rug Made room Gave me a broom To share the life wealth Be good to myself Please forgive me I couldn't see I thank you Love you too

A peak of interest in the way we dress We're just reflected by our closets Narcissistic and self obsessed Mistaken and misshapen for lower self-esteem Too often I've not gone back to that spot To collect my thoughts Now my stomachs in knots Pouring in distress over Tumblr or Pintrest How Instagram feeds can feed our will to breathe A book to the Face declares a race War between ourselves, how sour the taste Weaknesses rest as we look our best In eyes of others who care less Actions no longer speak louder than outfits Mistakes are well-dressed skeletons As we feel others revel in The pasts we want to hide We're only reflected by our closets
