Repentance by Jesirae S

I fell asleep saying my prayers, mid sentence.
Nowadays I drag my feet during the day, here's my repentance.
Dear Lord, is there wax in ya ears? Cause we’ve been cryin some tears.
Feelin hopeless, take this back to whoever sent this.
Been this
Way for a couple weeks.
A couple can grow together, if they move a couple feet.
I'm movin, is he by me? Nah I'll have to take a couple seats.
On a couple planes.
I thought our love would transcend distance.
I'm a cup of too insane.
An trust me. He don't really like to drink.
I drink to blur the pain.
Throw my regrets all up in the sink.
It's a Gemini thang.
So I sang "girllll you know you betta watch out."
It might be too late.
The damage could be too great.
Grateful for your blessings Lord.
You've helped me slowly take this armor off and then put down my sword.
I swear, I swore to share my riches with the world.
I pour my soul into the mic, and then I do a little twirl.
You made me talented.
Since birth I knew my worth, so let these demons try to challenge it.
I'm growing day by day so what's a battle? Shit!
I just want him to know.
I BEEN suited up so let me drive this battleship.
Could sail the seven seas for you. My eyes closed, not crashing, if, it's God's plan.
I look at you, just look at you & got damn.
I just be grinning like that's my man.
I'm winning.
When I think of how far we have to go.
Open our minds and redefine that corny shit that Shakespeare wrote.
I'm writing lines but are they right? Lord be the pencil for each sentence.
I fell asleep saying my prayers, but now you heard my repentance.
