M's Poetry
Thank You God
Thank you God
for raising my head
for dreaming of the kingdom
and I shout to the devil
my soul you can't have for ransom
cuz it's already been claimed
it's already in it's rightful place
My Lord is the purest gold
He is all the colors flashing
He is love and faith hand and hand
He is my beacon of light
the day I chose Him is the day I won
All disguises have left
today I need no commentary
today I know I am stronger because of yesterday
no explanation necessary
no lessons I need to pay for
I have all the knowledge I will ever need
when I worship and call upon your Name
my tongue will sin
but you posses all the tools
to erase my shortcomings
prepare me for my homecoming
thank you God
As I see the red, white and blue
in the wind does it ripple
you are the reason
I know love blinds fear that cripples
you see no difference from the rich to the poor
you see no difference from a boy to a girl
you see us as your children
and I thank you God.
