One thing I’ve realized in this world,

Is that sometimes it can seem so cold.

You see people will smile to your face,

Next thing you know they’ll come back to disgrace.

Why are they so cruel,

Why is everything like a constant duel?

Fighting for the right to live,

As if the God I serve isn’t big…

And no I’m not doubting His power,

It’s just the world is screaming a bit louder.

Constantly telling me I won’t make it,

Constantly saying that I’m not a good fit.

Look I’ve been trying to try,

But with each attempt something inside just dies.

Can I ask you something?

Even if the question makes you cringe?

Why am I so broken?

Because I thought I was made to be a unique token..

I’m tired of all this pain in my heart…

I think its time for my life to restart.

Which means something has to end,

Which means this world can no longer be my friend.

I’ve begged on my knees,

Just for myself to be seen.

This may sound weird but this world is not my home,

I was only given to it as a loan.

See I was made to be a voice to the nations,

And that is the purpose for my creation.

Because one thing I’ve realized in this world,

Is that sometimes it can feel so cold.

But that coldness will soon be gone,

Because I was brought here to turn the heat on.

As God is my witness,

This world will no longer oppress us.

We are a chosen generation,

And we will move this nation.

We will stop this aimless hate,

And that is not up for debate.

Our kids will inherit this earth,

But only after it has given birth.

And this birth isn’t something to doubt,

It’s the only thing that will create that way out.

The beauty of it will open our eyes,

So much that all you’ll be able to do is cry.

And these tears aren’t of sadness,

No these tears mark the end of a growing madness.

Just know that our God is great,

And that He has determined this fate.

And know that special love,

Will forever come from above.
