May you shine

May you shine,

 May you suck fresh,

The fiery sparkle of the sun,

May its energies be with you,

And may you exceed our lowly expectations.

 

 

And about the empty bellies that  despise us:

May you feed them,

May you be patient with them,

May you travel far and wide to meet their needs,

Bearing in mind we are no different from the hypocrites we condemn,

And there, may you cut through layers and layers of contempt

and tenderly touch their hearts,

May you teach them art, music, words and other profounder things,

And may they love you,

And listen to you,

And do as you say,

And may you find contentment,

And purpose,

And may your  ego finally rest,

from the demons and other darknesses

 

But one day,

After the toxics have worn off,

May you return to God,

to tell him, without Him

it’s still not enough…

Human

I know, I made mistakes
I am what I am, I'm only a man
So don't take my joy away
Don't turn your back on me

I know this was my fault but
How much should it cost
To make things right?

 Do I have to pay for life?

We all fall short sometimes
And I'm guilty of that crime
But I just wanna make you see
That you can still believe in me

I know, I made mistakes
I am what I am, I'm only a man
So don't take my joy away
Don't turn your back on me

Speak to me

 Let me know how you feel
If you feel like you can hold on and be strong
I will never leave you lonely

I cry sometimes 'cause I make you cry
And that ain't right
I won't make the same mistake twice
Baby please forgive me

I know, I made mistakes
I am what I am, I'm only a man
So don't take my joy away
Don't turn your back on me

I know, I made mistakes
I am what I am, I'm only a man

 So don't take my joy away
Don't turn your back on me

No I can't erase the wrong I've done
But I hope you can give me another chance
'Cause if you were me you would want the same
And I'd give that chance to you

I know, I made mistakes
I am what I am, I'm only a man
So don't take my joy away
Don't turn your back from me

I know, I made mistakes

 I am what I am, I'm only a man
So don't take my joy away
Don't turn your back on me

I'm only human
Of flesh and blood, Amen
I'm only human
And I'm gonna make mistakes

I know, I made mistakes
I am what I am, I'm only a man
So don't take your joy away from me
Don't turn your back on me

I know, I made mistakes
I am what I am, I'm only a man
So don't take my joy away
Don't turn your back on me

I know, I made mistakes
I am what I am
