People make excuses why they can do bad

Why they can yell at others and make them sad

People say it’s all good it’s no big deal

When the stuff that’s about to go down is far to real

You gotta be careful don’t let others convince you to steal

You should be better at being yourself, you should know how to feel

This is a scary location, this crazy place

You gotta outrun sin-it’s one damn big race

You gotta resist temptation, you gotta get that space

From iniquity so that there isn’t any trace

And if you make a mistake

You can ask for forgiveness, all this love to give and take

Aren’t you noticing the signs

All around us, some things are crossing lines

But we don’t notice them because we are spiritually blind

We don’t realize that it’s time

That god is gonna be here soon and we are gonna be tried

We are gonna be judged and there’s no way to lie your way out of this one so don’t even try

You gotta be smart and apologize to the lord you better scream and cry

Because for you he sacrificed his life

Heck for him we should be willing to die

We should be willing to lose everything

You gotta be willing to fight for the ones you love

To give up fighting and hatred, all that stuff

You gotta be willing to save a stranger in a time of crises

Because you better do what Christ did

He died so you could be forgiven

So you could live the way you’ve been livin

So you could find the one you’ve been given

And lean on them even when your stuck when your pinned in

When your stuck and need them

Don’t be afraid to go see them

Don’t be afraid to free them

You never know who you have till there gone

And if you ever do anything that hurts them heck your in the wrong

So love them and sing that song That stuck inside your heart, inside your soul

Because there’s no getting away if there’s no end goal


I felt disrespected and like I didn’t matter compared to other people who thought they were better then everyone. I ended up just getting used to it.

The longest stretch of the book, and the loudest. Most of these carry a date and an album.
