I guess they wonder
Where I been
Searched through the Pain
To find the love inside
To reverse
I was sleep
Homeless on the ground one night
When I heard the voice of God
Come to me
And this is what he told me
He said
“You can still have a good life
As long as you don’t give up
You will suffer in life but
Don’t give up”
When we are born
Of course we want the best life
This is True
But you can’t do a thing
Until you learn 2 Love you
People gossiped and they talked about me
I was on the ground
Tapped out
Messed up
From all the pain
I felt, endured, and seen
Then one night
I heard the voice of God
Come to me
And this is what He told me
He said
“You can still have a good life
As long as you don’t give up
You will suffer in life but you don’t
Give up”
What you need to do
Is learn 2 Love you
You will suffer in life
But don’t give up.
