Dear God


Erick Bustos 12th Grade 3/27/13 Dear God Dear God, I think its time we had a heart to heart I’ve been smoking weed and drinking which drove us apart. I guess I take advantage, for it was you who sacrificed yourself for our sins Trying to start over but don’t know where to begin. I guess it’s due to the devils temptation, Or maybe living in poverty causing lack of motivation. I understand if I ask then I shall receive But I fear I will never go back if I were deceived But I know deep down I am a child of god Trying to turn my life around just to make you proud But I know I must fight through the devils playground And I know the devil wont being playing nice as he sends his hellhounds I know once I over come every mission every obstacle Then in the end I will be unstoppable.
