Now that we have been formally introduced let me explain something to you
I do not sleep my sisters, my brothers, my mothers and sons,
I toil in the darkness the same as you
BUT I DRAW STRENGTH WHERE YOU SHOW ONLY WEAKNESS
I offer you my strength in the words and arms of my congregation
I ask you all this, are you angry? Do you hate me? Am I any better than you?
The only difference between you and I is that you fade to nothing
While I am a god who has seen things the devil never dreamed
AND I WILL LIVE FOREVER!
I will do what I can to help you but I can’t promise you eternity
I will promise you my protection until the end of your dying day
The only problem is, such as all other things that dwell in the dark YOU must invite me in
Allow me into hollow weary hearts and I will set you free,
follow me and I will help you see the sleep
Follow me and live your dreams

what accent is that?
Your profile says Canada, your pronunciation says Irish? I'm a little confused.
That aside, I like the thought process here. There's a lot of questioning of the self going on. It's intriguing, actually.
Thank you for the read.

I'm actually from northern Ireland and it makes doing something like this a lot harder than I thought, when I'm trying to enunciate certain things on camera but I'm working on it
