"Our Light Shines In Us"

I know times is rough
But keep ya head up!
Da only way to prosper
Faith n Love!
Through God, our Father

Can't you hear da laughter?
Angels singing among the rafters
Protect us while we slumber

There was a time my feelings couldn't feel and became numb n felt da beat of my heart skip n mutter
Used to close people out like window shutters
Came out my cocoon like a butterfly so you could see my wings flutter
Words cut like box cutters! 

So I choose carefully what eye articulate
Circle of emotions so strong, you couldn't penetrate
When you weak, datz when deez serpents try to infiltrate
Life is like dat shot at da buzzer
You either miss or make!
I wanna start fresh plus have a clean slate

Not after death, but before it like Biggie
One More Chance!
No more sleepwalkin' while my dreams are muffled in a trance
Brighter days on horizon's, watchin' sunsets 
You n I side by side no sense of time
As we romance under da moonlight
Fools never listen to wisdom til' da noose tight

We Alive!
So very blessed just to be alive!
Eye know sometimes da truth stings like a bee-hive
Mirrors give off reflections where you can't hide
Our light shines in us!
No sense or hint of vengeful pride
Put dat to da side
Let our voice's connect with our minds to harmonize with da notes in stride
My eyes focused on da ocean tide
As God is my witness n my guide
Eye shall never quit or give up inside
Our destinies written in hieroglyphics on da walls of future eyes on da prize
Our sins are cleansed through da blood of Christ
Let's come together n unite
Bring about change for a better life instead of strife
