Night Of Many Woes

Predators lurk in jungles
Venom killers duck in holes
Killer jaws and wide mouths are a constant threat in the water worlds
Deadly diseases flow in the fluids

There are spirits in the hoods
Living creatures in the waters
Powers and principality in high places
Demon possessed souls on the streets
All bringing constant woe upon the face of the earth

And this is where I call my home
This is where I am suppose to live holy
In the midst of impurity and insanity
A trial ground a test to find me worthy or unworthy
For the life that is coming next

So I live in perpetual fear
For all the insecurity placed before me
I must fight for everything
Food money love liberty rights
But no matter what I get I will die

Now I cannot contest what is Mighty
Neither can I fathom the wisdom
Trying to cope is stress enough
I have lost all hope except for grace
My fate is shaped for eternal grief

Woe unto me
Woe unto me
I have been lost all along
And that is how it was meant to be

Woe unto me
Woe unto me
God knows there is no love for him in my heart
Everything I want is for selfish reasons

Woe unto me
Woe unto me
Salvation or damnation
I wait hopelessly
