Trials

Trials

God,

You’ve given me a thousand trials.

You’ve given me a thousand tests.

I end up dwelling on them for a while.

They often brick me with more stress.

Why do you give me all these trials?

I don’t know if I can succeed

But you make me walk for miles

So you must have faith in me.

Am I stronger than I think?

Am I more capable than I believe?

So tell me how! I need Your help!!

I’m drowning in the stress and everything else.

I need a break! Or to succeed!

Why when I turn right, you pull me left?

God,

You’ve given me a thousand trials.

You’ve given me a thousand tests.

I end up dwelling on them for a while.

They often brick me with more stress.

But you believe in me! You have faith in me!

I will survive as long as you’re with me!

I won’t give it up. I can’t let you down!

But I know that my past can’t be rewound.

You know that I am stronger than I think.

I am more capable than I believe.

I can do all things through Christ, who strengthens me.

God,

You’ve given me a thousand trials.

You’ve given me a thousand tests.

I end up dwelling on them for a while.

They often brick me with more stress.

I will succeed!

I will succeed!

We all will succeed!

I can do all things in Christ, who strengthens, me.

You strengthen me.

You strengthen me.

Amen.

Too Late

I did something terrible
I did something I hate
It was just an experiment
It was a huge mistake
I no longer associate
But from what I evaluate
My feelings reciprocate
From yours
And now i'm closing those doors before the core of my body washes upon a shore
It's all just folklore. They try to lure you with something by saying it won't be a bore
That's crap, just gift-wrapped.

So if you're intellegent, you'll consider my deliverance and won't try anything that can make you feel like a whore
Especially if you don't adore the one you're doing it for
It'll leave your heart sore

So figure out your life but avoid mistakes. It takes much more to make a fix than to never to fix at all
So believe me, if you fall don't call a thousand times, each time making it worse and eventually hitting a wall.
You wouldn't believe how many people I saw that made mistakes that ended beautiful relationships and ended it all
Its a pity but they all caused their own fall.

So while I did something terrible,
Make no mistake
Its just the wake of an ache that I cannot replace
With a pleasure, or a pretty love letter
That feeling sinking into my heart cannot get better.
Trust me, this time it's too late.

Perfect Decay

What feels like a lifetime ago
I met the most beautiful girl
So very little did I know
Should would become a part of my world

Oh, she asked me out one morning
A very unique date indeed
It was very clear, in no way stormy
It was the perfect date to me

It was the perfect weather
It was the perfect girl
It couldn't have been much better
It was my perfect world

We finally arrived to the place
It was all smiles on our face

It seems like a lifetime ago
So many things have changed
And yet I don't even know
How much has stayed the same

On time and hand in hand
We sat down to watch the show
I suffered amnesia due to dreamland
The spotlight you completely stole

Our first kiss on our first date
It was like a scene from a movie
I wasn't tired and it was very late
I could only think about you and me

It was the end of the day
A reason to wake you became

The next couple of months
Everything was going good
Then we hit a couple bumps
Things were not as they should

I thought they would get better
In someways they truly did
I told all my friends I met her
All of a sudden it's coming to an end

Becoming delirious and confused
My world came tumbling down
I felt as though I was being used
I could not understand quite how

All of that time became a waste
Was my first love perhaps a mistake?

How could I know what to believe
A thousand stories I quickly was told
Everything was overwhelming to me
I just sat back and watched it unfold.

It was still amazing so I can't complain
It was my first love, which perfectly decayed

Say No To Love

I've had my heart broken before
It's been tortured to extremes
It's not something I can ignore
I hope you know what I mean

I don't want to fall in love but I can't stop it
I don't want to give you my heart, you can't have it
At least not yet, I'm still healing from open wounds
If it would break again, I'd have to bury it in a tomb
So I don't want to fall in love.

A girl that came before you
I thought that I was in love
But my life you came into
Like an angel from above.

I wish you could understand
The complication I'm in


I don't want to fall in love but I can't stop it
I don't want to give you my heart, you can't have it
At least not yet, I'm still healing from open wounds
If it would break again, I'd have to bury it in a tomb
So I don't want to fall in love.

The times we spend, each and every day
They are memories that will never fade away

I can't help but to fall in love, I can't stop it.
I have to give you my heart, please take it
Handle with care, it's healing from open wounds
It was not my choice, so please don't send it to its tomb
I didn't want to fall in love.

We're Crazy

You know we're crazy... Right?
Good.

We sneaked around all the time
Tried to live a white lie
But it was all for nothing
We had the time of our life
We thought we'd husband and wife
Now I realize that we should've been bluffing
And yet we kept trying to revive
What we thought couldn't die
Each other we weren't even loving

So

We finalized realized
We were living a lie
But we didn't want to cut our ties
In this disguise
We quickly realized
“just friends” is just a stage so we can deny.

We keep trying to hold on
But our love has been long gone
The foundation is crumbled stones
This love doesn't belong
Can't we admit to the wrong
This simple truth has been forever known

The rings are returned
For neither have earned
The rightful place we thought we should have
The remnants are burned
Let's take a right turn
Never go back, Not even laugh

So

We finally realized
We were living a lie
We cut our ties
And got on, with our on, life.

So finally
We are happy
It took too long to realize
That love is a choice
I can still hear that voice
It's what God showed me that night.

Hopeless Romantic

Everyday a pretty face
Everyone a potential date
Every time it's always too late
I think I need to elaborate
I'm just a hopeless romantic

I want to take her out
Show her what I'm about
In my mind, there's no doubt
I just don't know how
I'm just a hopeless romantic

She's the girl I like to see
I love it when she's with me
I keep thinking what it could be
But it's still a mystery
I'm just a hopeless romantic

If she ever can figure me out
I'm done for, it's all through
I'd climb on a mountain, scream and shout
If that's what she wanted me to do


She's a girl in my class
I don't know how to ask
This can go really bad
I don't want to look like a wrasse
I'm just a hopeless romantic

Her eyes are forever kind
I like when they look into mine
That's a way I'd like to spend my time
I love the way they sparkle and shine
I'm just a hopeless romantic

Her voice is so beautiful
Reminding of an angel
It is so happy, so gleeful
It makes me tranquil
I'm just a hopeless romantic

If she knew how I feel
It could open up another realm
But I won't try, oh not until
I know she won't tear me down

She's the one I'll dream of
She is in fact more than enough
This is the girl I want to love
She's an angel from up above
I'm just a hopeless romantic

So let me tell you what went wrong
Because now I'm sure she's long gone
I guess I came on way too strong
I mean she was inspiration for some songs
I'm just a hopeless romantic

I'm not done I won't give in
Someone's love I want to win
I don't know how, why, or where it begins
But I don't want to be around if it's to end
I'm just a hopeless romantic

Emotions

Emotions can only be described as everything
Sad, angry, depressed, ecstatic, bold, happy

Those are just a few of the emotions we feel
They help to protect us in a wondrous veil
When they're not making us want to go still
So be happy you can at least still feel ill.
Agony and pain may mean you can shrill.

When he is angry he is pretty ticked
Just wants to give someone a nice little lick
Not too many just a couple of good hits
The person deserves it for being a witch
Afterwards, his emotions will switch

Fear trickles in because he's done bad
He beat someone with everything he had
But hey, at least he is no longer mad
But he must now watch it or he'll be sad
It was his first time, he's sure it's the last

Then he sees how well one is doing
Jealousy kicks in, he's renewing
I mean, hey, there is no undoing.
He wants to be happy, no more fuming
He takes their stuff leaving his presence looming

Then he feels bad, I think you call this one guilt
He destroyed any good in life he thought he's built
He prepares to work the rest of his life in the fields
Sweating and betting he won't be able to live in his filth
Then he discovers Jesus and the alter on the hill

He gives his life to Jesus and he learns to forgive
This new found life has made him want to live
He does whatever he can, gives everything he can give
He wants to be happy again so he calls dibs
He is again happy, more happy than he can admit

A Perfect Night

This year should be the time of our life
We're still young and it's our last time
I'm envisioning the perfect night
The perfect night.

First we go and meet.
Cuddle if we take a seat
Then move on to the next scene
Where we get dressed and ready

We're apart yet we're still so close
A little make-up even though you're beautiful
The dress has done the impossible
And I look good in a tuxedo

Then we head out to a special place
We visit and laugh as I get my steak
We eat and you can bet I clear my plate
Everything has been going to my taste

Next stop is the main event
We dance until we can't
This is how things were meant
Happier I've never been

Finally it's all over
We're tired and we feel older
You rest your head on my shoulder
The remaining is just a blur...

What Was Is Not What Is

I know I might have missed my chance
But my heart keeps on trying to dance

Everything I thought was real is gone
Every feeling I used to feel was wrong
My heart and soul, are one in whole, but sometimes cold as stone
Everything I thought was real is gone.

Sometimes life throws us curves, but we can counter with medicinal herbs
I'm not talking about the drugs, oh no.
Sometimes we hear the best of words, but people prefer to give a curse
I just wish life could be better, oh yeah.

So I find this girl I think is the one. I dream about the possible fun.
But things take another turn, oh no.
I feel as though I've been shunned, I hate feeling this way so I am done
But things will get better, oh yeah.

Everything I thought was real is gone
Every feeling I used to feel was wrong
My heart and soul, are one in whole, but sometimes I feel cold as stone
Everything I thought was real is gone.

I try to improve, it's so swearin' hard. I need a new hand of cards.
Cause I have some bad odds, oh no.
But this is my life, it's my part. I will find a place that I can start.
I will get better, oh yeah.

Things are bad, but I don't care. I sometimes think it's more than I can bear.
But I won't give up, oh no.
I will find a life and find a girl. Make some money and make my world
I will succeed, oh yeah.

Everything I thought was real might be gone.
But I am resting my hopes, for the distance is long.
My heart and soul, are one in whole, but they're never cold as stone.
The previous way is gone.
The new way will be renowned.

Time Travel

A thousand memories rushing in
A hundred miles away
I don't know how or where to begin
But I can't help but to say

Everything that's happened to us
I can pinpoint what went wrong
I used to hate my life, I've had enough
But that time in my life is long gone

Everyday I think that I am better
But I will never be close to perfect.
Every smile, every kiss, every letter
I thank God that I'm not still hurting

Sometimes I wonder why
I just break down and cry
I can't believe things have gone the way they have
It all just has to be a lie
Can we repair our old ties
Can we go back into time and have a laugh

If you ever think that you are done
Look up in the sky and pray
The battle isn't lost, but it's not quite won
You'll be shocked, You'll be amazed

So even though, things have changed
It won't hold me back
He can help, break these chains
And help me to find what I lack

Sometimes I wonder why
I just break down and cry
I can't believe things have gone the way they have
It all just has to be a lie
Can we repair our old ties
Can we go back into time and have a laugh

Jesus works in mysterious ways
This something I know now
We have our time, we have our days
We may not understand how

Sometimes I wonder why
I just break down and cry
I can't believe things have gone the way they have
It all just has to be a lie
Can we repair our old ties
Can we go back into time and have a laugh
Can we go back into time
and have a laugh

Forgiven Today

Everyone makes mistakes
But you can be forgiven today

Let us say you've gotten into a fight
You've given this guy, more than a black eye
But you feel bad, You want to cry
You pray to Jesus, The Way, The Truth and The Life.

You may not hear Him, but He says it's okay
He lets you know that He'll lift up that weight
Yeah you should know that it's never too late
You feel better, You've been forgiven today

Jesus loves us, yeah He wants us to know
He'll be with us, wherever we go

The world gets harder, as each day is bestowed upon us
We can't help but to notice that it's getting rough
We want to do good but everything is too tough
We pray to Him, 'Cause we've had enough

You may not hear Him, but He says it's okay
He lets you know that He'll lift up that weight
Yeah you should know that it's never too late
You feel better, You've been forgiven today

Each we wonder why
That all changes tonight

This time He tells why times sometimes seem bad
We've lost our way, He had to get us back on track

You may not hear Him, but He says it's okay
He lets you know that He'll lift up that weight
Yeah you should know that it's never too late
You feel better, You've been forgiven today

The Unexpected Miracle

Life as we know it
Is simple and complex
We get money and we blow it
We can't imagine what comes next

And everyday
Things get worse and worse
Your life just fades away
Your dreams go find a hearse

You get depressed
You're about to burst
You can't see how you're blessed
You feel like you're cursed

But that's just when
A miracle occurs
It was unexpected
But you're glad you've been heard
It's when you've given up
You get the most help
It's just enough
For you to evade more hell
Whoa oh oh, the unexpected miracle

Everything is going wrong
You just don't know what to do
Nothing is right, the good is gone
A nail just went through your shoe

The protection you thought you had
Well it just wasn't enough
But I promise you should be glad
Even though these times are tough

Cause even when it looks so bad
You should be really glad

That's just when
A miracle occurs
It was unexpected
But you're glad you've been heard
It's when you've given up
You get the most help
It's just enough
For you to evade more hell
Whoa, the unexpected miracle

Sky High

I want to try something new
I wanna try it right now
I wanna try it, me and you
But I really don't know how

The look in your eye
if I could tell
How it makes me feel inside
I know this road, it's a bumpy ride
You make me feel sky high

Girl, look at you. You're something special
You could be the center of my whole world
I promise I'll give you my all and extra
Maybe even diamonds and pearls

So I hope you know I'm watching you
But I'm not a stalker, I'm not a creep
Just figuring out what to do
To get you here with me

The look in your eye
if I could tell
How it makes me feel inside
I know this road, it's a bumpy ride
You make me feel sky high

There's a thousand songs that apply to love
I could pick one out of the books
But there's nothing like what I think of
When I think of you and your looks

So if there's something that you should know
It's that you make me feel sky high

Didn't Know How Much

Day to day, same basic thing.
Get up, get dressed, and see what the day brings
It was ordinary, then it was the sting
Then the assault by the memories.

I saw someone that looked like you.
It made my heart stop, then drop,
then roll straight towards the moon
This feeling really ain't anything new.
I just didn't realize how much I've missed you.

Woah, I feel a little light headed
So I grab something to hold steady
For this feeling I just wasn't ready
I guess maybe I should build a levy

It's just the same old thing ya know
But the memories, I don't want to go

I saw someone that looked like you
It made my heart stop, then drop,
then roll straight towards the moon
This feeling really ain't anything new
I just didn't realize how much I've missed you.

I getting old enough now, I can move on
I can manage, even though you're gone
But right now, if someone cracked my bones
I wouldn't feel it, I probably won't even have known!

I guess I should always have my faith
Even though I don't know why it has to be this way

I saw someone that looked like you.
It made my heart stop, then drop,
then roll straight towards the moon
This feeling really ain't anything new.
I just didn't realize how much I missed you.

I keep wondering, when I'm gunna see you again
I'm just glad you're still my friend

Do You Remember

Everyone in our past something they have contributed to our life.
But now, let's recognize each and every one of them.

Do you remember,
The way that guy looked at you
Like he wanted to fight
Oh, I wonder why
Y'all each ended up hurt too.

Do you remember
Each of swing of his fists
They weren't well executed
But they felt so heavy duty
It hurt worse than a witch

Do you remember
How you retaliated
You kept hitting him back
But y'all didn't know how to act
when y'all strength evaporated

But for you, a fight didn't decide the rest of your life
It just made for a very interesting night

So do you remember
When you first saw her smile
She was the cute one
She was always fun
And her number you had speed-dialed

Do you remember
When y'all first went on a date
Y'all saw a good movie
Then got a bite to eat
And ended with a skate

Do you remember
Asking her dad the question
You were scared of the answer
He didn't want to hand her
But to him you were the best one

And now she's your wife
I hope she's there for the rest of your life

But do you remember
When a loved one passed away
Man, I know it hurt
It made you wanna curse
But they are at a better place

Do you remember
Hearing all the details
Too many things were said
You just wanted to go to bed
You really were not feeling well

Do you remember
The day at the funeral
All the people gathered around
As he was lowered to the ground
The day was gray and dull

Do you remember

Hey girl, I want to be your secret valentine
And if you don't want it to be me, that's just fine
Cause you may never ever figure it out
You may never know it's you I'm talking about

Letter to Santa

Santa, I finally know what I want
But unfortunately, you don't
So Imma inform you, let you know
It's not something average, oh no.

Ya see, I don't want any toys
That, my friend, is child's play
I don't even want the stuff to make noise
But I wouldn't mind it, I'm just saying

So Santa, I haven't asked much from you throughout my life
You owe something to me, and I know what I'd like
If you can give me that girl, I will be happier than ever
She'd be the diamond of my world, I will bother you again never
I have her picture in my mind, I can send it to you
I know you know her, she's prides herself in what she can do.
She's a good girl, the only one of her kind.
And if it's possible, I want you to make her mine.

I want nothing else, just so you know
Cause she's more precious than gold
And if I'm sending this out too late
Well, I guess until next year I'll wait.

And yeah this is the new age
But I don't want any technology
I know you may not know what to say
But this gift will certainly make me happy

If you can give me that girl, I will be happier than ever
She'd be the diamond of my world, I will bother you again never
I have her picture in my mind, I can send it to you
I know you know her, she's prides herself in what she can do.
She's a good girl, the only one of her kind.
And if it's possible, I want you to make her mine.

So Santa I'm not asking for much this, just everything
You don't know this feeling so strong that she gives me
If you can give me that girl, I will be happier than ever
She'd be the diamond of my world, I will bother you again never
I have her picture in my mind, I can send it to you
I know you know her, she's prides herself in what she can do.
She's a good girl, the only one of her kind.
And if it's possible, I want you to make her mine.

So if Christmas comes and she's not mine
Well, there's still a next year, so we got time.

Parachuting

I'm flying high up in the sky
I'm going to fall,
But don't worry about catching me
Cause I have a parachute on my back

Now this parachute, It has no holes
It works perfectly, Wo-oh behold
I pull the string, go higher in the air
Get way up there, I'm kinda scared
Wo-oh, I fall gently to the ground
No broken bones, no painful sounds

So it's okay, if I fall for you
I doesn't matter if you didn't want me to
Cause I'll fall, gently to the ground
And be back up high to go another round

Now this parachute, It has no holes
It works perfectly, Wo-oh behold
I pull the string, go higher in the air
Get way up there, I'm kinda scared
Wo-oh, I fall gently to the ground
No broken bones, no painful sounds

Many times, I repeat this, no success
But I keep on trying, it's just a test
One of these times, you'll fall with me
I swear to you, it's our destiny

So before the flight, I check my parachute
I'm still alone, and that's nothing new
Then up I go, it's beautiful scenery
One day, you'll see it with me

Now this parachute, It has no holes
It works perfectly, Wo-oh behold
I pull the string, go higher in the air
Get way up there, I'm kinda scared
Wo-oh, I fall gently to the ground
No broken bones, no painful sounds

So I get prepped, for a new trip
Then I get a strange anonymous tip
I was told, she likes my style
Little did I know, she was really worth-while

So this time, I'm going up
I'm not alone, and that's enough
But then we fall, together holding hands
Neither of us want to land

So we let go, and pull our stings
Up again, it's our history
Then we fall, slowly to the ground
No broken bones, just happy sounds

Then we get the parachutes off our backs
We don't really know how we should act
So we run, a give and receive a hug
It was perfect, but that's just love.

Help Wanted

Oh that night, you were singing to me
To me and for me to realize my destiny
I have it all, except for what I'm wanting
Love from a good girl, that beautiful lady

Only thing is I've known that before
The words you sang just made my heart go sore
It kind of sucks that many women became whores
Because I'm not the type of guy wantin' only to score

So once you can tell me how,
I will take every action possible
Don't hesitate, I need help now
It can even be barely plausible

So a brand new song on your brand new cd
Well it's making me do a little bit of thinking
But how do I get a planned little meeting
How do I get a date for me and she.

Uh oh, that light bulb's very bright
It's simple, I'll ask her out tonight
Oh no! The simple thought gives me fright
Not much scares me, but rejection might.

So once you can tell me how,
I will take every action possible
Don't hesitate, I need help now
It can even be barely plausible

So please when new music is near
Tell me how to overcome my fear
I could promise her, my love is sheer
She's everything and should be my dear.

Margo

In today's world as with the old world, life is not fair.
Everyone goes about it well, but for no one do they care.
So when a large disaster come, one would think it'd change
But it doesn't, and that is the world's biggest shame.
What is this disaster? Do you really want to know?
It's not aliens, but this disaster was done too many years ago.
This disaster is food, life's fuel for the person's core.
So what would one do if there were no food in the stores?
The answer, one would fight for survival, following their instinct.
Take any kind of food, eat it, and not even bother to make it distinct.
But they were hungry, and needing to eat was at the top of their list.
Unfortunately, to get it, one must learn to use their fists.
So the world became filled with chaos and despair.
And for a long time there was not a hero anywhere.
But then their hope, in the surprising form of a girl
There was not a rock she could not hurl.
Her name was Margo, a not-so-beautiful pedestrian.
Instead she was smart, and she wanted to lend a hand.
They new she was special, since her arrival at the homestead.
Her life was precious, so they made sure to feed her bread.
In her early years, she quickly learned to fight.
If she got hungry, watch out, she'd knock out your light.
Then she got older and became a teenager indeed.
She then began organizing a way to get people free.
Free from the life that everyone had to live.
And hopefully towards one where everyone did give.
But very few listened, for she was only a teen
They thought she was crazy, many were mean.
So Margo had to wait until she much older.
So that people listened to her for she was wiser.
Age only added to the effect that she gave.
When she spoke, people listened to what she'd say.
They knew she was ugly when she was young.
But they learned she strong and brilliant so her plan begun.
Day in and day out the work never once stopped.
Even for the blind, the deaf, and those who had to hop.
Work and work until society came into existence.
Life became good, for everyone learned to listen.
