Ballad Of Life

My soul has been searching the broken dreams of forgiving    
The blues in my eyes have thawed into never forgetting      
I’ve let you punk my hope with promises you never keep      
A metal razor blade that has cut sympathy way too deep      
As the rock rolled down the steep hill of this madness      
It left me at rock bottom with a A cappella of sadness      
Now I’m here singing the gospel of a spirit that keeps fading      
I will continue to rap myself into the warmth of sating      
     
This is the music of my pulsating heart      
Hymns whisper what’s has been trying to impart      
Chanting the scars on my brain left from your knife      
A serenade of these lost words in my ballad of life      
     
All the beating has drummed a epiphany of confusion      
Im plugging in a chord to amplify a loves contusion      
All the strings of lies have me lacing up a riff to truth      
Why couldn’t you synthesize what would have soothed      
Your words are ransom notes without payment or collection      
The bass of all of this strumming a dark fantasy of rejection      
A symphony weeping sorrow in the hooks within all of us      
Our country of folk missing the dialect in respect & love  
     
This is the music of my pulsating heart      
Hymns whisper what’s has been trying to impart      
Chanting the scars on my brain left from your knife      
A serenade of these lost words in my ballad of life      
     
Let this be a concert comforting pain in my silence      
This will be a anthem against all of hidden violence      
I had to break down the bridge with the tragic words I write      
A chorus of lights inside singing what’s incomplete tonight
