Acceptance
If I died right now, I just pray God accepts me
I've let lust and greed and hate misdirect me
I've allowed my pain to make feel entitled
I've lied so much with my hand on the bible
I know its such a shame
The way in which I've been presenting myself
Not as a reflection of you
But of someone else
I've forgotten the times you've protected me
When I needed a leg to stand on
And when I was so small in this large world
You have me everything to expand on
I feel cursed at times
Alot of the time to be honest
But my presence is because of you
Through love,this is what binds us
I lose sight of the blessings
Through all of this pain
Forgive me for my sins
For happiness I used to gain
You've stuck with me
When I was a child, I read the whole testament
I used to pray all the time
The best ways to let you in
My only protector
A shield I always misuse
If I died right now
I hope you'd let me be with you
I've let lust and greed and hate misdirect me
I've allowed my pain to make feel entitled
I've lied so much with my hand on the bible
I know its such a shame
The way in which I've been presenting myself
Not as a reflection of you
But of someone else
I've forgotten the times you've protected me
When I needed a leg to stand on
And when I was so small in this large world
You have me everything to expand on
I feel cursed at times
Alot of the time to be honest
But my presence is because of you
Through love,this is what binds us
I lose sight of the blessings
Through all of this pain
Forgive me for my sins
For happiness I used to gain
You've stuck with me
When I was a child, I read the whole testament
I used to pray all the time
The best ways to let you in
My only protector
A shield I always misuse
If I died right now
I hope you'd let me be with you
