GROWING OLD

Life comes in different phase
Our life is made of events and situations
That shapes our living as we go through this journey of life
Leaving us with the experience of it all
And life still goes on and on

Some certain things has to be kept away
And just let it all go laying low
As the sleeping dog that falls asleep
Tomorrow is but never a sight away anymore
You just look back and see life is past spent

Tomorrow is never but a sight far anymore
You just realize that life is nothing
Because we cannot just continue to be this way
We must let it all go out and be in the moment
Growing old

There comes a time
You just have to let somethings pass
Just as if you don’t see anything
Just to carve that peace of mind you want for yourself
Because there is nothing like living a peaceful life

Certain habits had to let go from you
Certain lifestyles has to just be imbedded and stop
Certain activities have to be quit and just you you’re real self
People will get to notice but questions we spring up
Growing old

Comes with a certain outlook towards life
That you see life just like a piece of paper
So light and so empty void of nothing
Because we came into this space called life
And empty we leave when time comes to call it a day with life is

So coming to this later stage of life
The mist of our eyes becomes so dim
As we cast deaf ears to some certain things of life
Just letting it all out and let it go like the sleep of the night
Growing old

Is a time to be more careful
Chasing what brings us inner and outer peace
Taking off every toxic negative and bad vibe
Because is better to be at peace within and without
Growing old

You take off your eyes from things that doesn’t matter
You take off your attention to time wasting event
You just want to find real love and real peace within you
Growing old a moment of sober reflection and letting go

I WILL RESTORE

Have you ever called my name

In the most seemly desperate times

And it seems you've lost it all 

Tomorrow to hot to handle to reach to

I will restore

Have you ever called my name in praise

I did not answer 

Have you ever called my name in prayer

And I didn't answer 

Have you ever wondered who I am

Am your father weep off your tears 

I will restore 

You may have lost your child

You may have been written off

You may have given up hope on life

You been jailed and tried 

I will restore it all

You may have lost your job

You may have gone far too long

It doesn't matter how long you have cried

All you got to do is believe Him and His world

I will restore 

He is your God for He will restore 

Your Family left you I will restore

Keep believing He is with you 

Your eyes are swallon tears never dries 

He is your father He said I will restore 

He is bringing you out

Changing your story 

It doesn't matter how long you've be down

He cares for you don't give in never give up

Just believe in Him and He will restore 

Not part but everything 

Hold on to His promise

For He is able well able 

Throw your doubt away 

He is your father and your God 

For He we restore

I WILL RISE

Go ahead drag the nails in my hand
Laugh at me where you stand
Label me with all sorts of names
Write all you can write and say
For I will rise again

Life has throw at you
A serious hard blows
That brings you fallen down
On your knees flat on your back
But is not the time to remain on the ground

I will rise
After every fall
When is too hard to stand tall
Over the of unfair criticism
Rising above the hates of men

I will rise above them all
Like the sun which never dies
Though set every dawn
Every day it does rise
I will rise

Like the ocean tides
Many times they are down
But invariably they rise
Above the unruly use of fellow human
I will rise

Like the tress from seeds they arise
And heights great after falling one
Twice and thrice after every fall
After every pains and betrayals
I will rise.

FIND YOUR DRIVE

Sometimes you just have to push
Yourself to get out of bed
You stay up to 2am just wish you were dead
You ask yourself why can't it be
Someone else instead

You get tired
Of all the thoughts in your head
You blame yourself screaming
Why am I me? 

You wish you could just be free
Open your eyes and you'll see

That life is what you make it
Abs sometimes it's hard
We get battered and bruised
Mistreated and scared
Find your drive

We forget what's important
We forget our drive
We all need a focus point
A reason to survive
Find your drive

Find your passion
Find your drive
Find something that makes you fight
And you will survive
Find your drive.

WHEN I NEED A SHELTER

In the world lived with fear
Fear of the unknown and known
Where friendship is becoming sour
And no one is to be trusted
And everyone for his or her self

Where evil abounds on all sides
You cannot go out
You don't know who to trust
Fear is the other of the day
When I need a shelter

Well I go to the rock of my salvation
Stones that the builder rejected
I ran to the mountain
And the mountain stands by me
The earth all around me is sinking sand
On Christ the solid rock I stand
When I need a shelter
When I need a friend I'll go to the rock

The world is giving into changes
Many are so religious today
Without any from of righteousness in them
Believing on eternal security
A faithless generation

Is time to pray for God
To watches for us all
Is time we need God's help 

In time of need
The world is dark and the days
Are getting so frighten is time for all
The children of God to pray

In a world full of hates and betrayal
In a world where trust is lost
In a world where fake human exist so much
In a world where God's Word
Is swept under carpet with polish word of man

You need a shelter
From the ranging storms of life
And that shelter is found underneath
The rock of ages Christ 

The chief corner stone
So when you need a shelter run to Him

He never fails
He never sleeps nor slumber
His grace is sufficient for you
His love never dies
When I need a shelter I'll go to the rock
