Overcome

I’ve led myself into the trenches of despair

My feet trucked through the mud to quicksand

When you fight it you just sink faster in there

For over seven years I stayed without a hand

I was too selfish to realize my bad habits

The ones that I’ve hurt and in myself I lost

Now I’m another year plus paying the cost



I’m riding the waves of the sea in a storm

My ride is full of peril and hardship of time

The wind controls where I end up in form

It’s going to be a while before the sun shines

I’ve already become sick from my journey

It’s just begun and all new temptations arose

One’s I’m not used to, it’s enough to go crazy

I’ve given my life and rid of my life boats



No matter what I go through

No matter how much time I endure

No matter what people say and think

I will overcome, I will live forever

I will be in the Kingdom and together

With Him, I give thanks and remorse
