Angels

 
denying my pleasures of the flesh that I have oft indulged in
because I am reminded of my purpose yet again
on which I first embarked on with a vow

the men awaken me with truth
what's up man did you come just for the sex, drugs and rock n rolll
do you even really remember us yet?

shame fills my being and I remember our promise to each other
cursing at my guard while imprisoned I vowed
I would get even for this

admitting my fears I rise
beaten down while in confinement
and questioned night and day until my release

I am no coward
holding back because I believe there will be no real winner
just differing degrees of lossess

my desire it to see the rift mend
war is on my mind
it seems it will be forced upon me
the houses for the sake of more power, will not unite

I implore you brothers and sister united we stand divided we fall
if you accept pardon
you must set aside your concerns
there are always concessions to be made

I will stand true for my right to be
for my right as a feeling being, still able to love
