The Forgotten Love

It's funny because growing up everything seemed so black and white

Now that I'm older it's like I can't even tell the difference between wrong and right

I mean I understand that the righteous path is the only one that contains the light

But I can't help but to hold on to my sin so tight

I keep holding on confused yet easily amused by its temporary delights

I've grown so weak without him I no longer put up a fight

My heart says I love the Lord but my actions treat him like a concubine 

Instead of serinating him with prayer and meditation 

I try to show him my love through heartless poems and cheap pick-up lines

But he is not a foolish God who is easily amused

By my new lyrics and my constant rues

You see just like me he knows this routine

I fall to my knees and claim to repent for my sins

That's right I do acknowedge that the things that I do are infact sins

I knew his word so well when I walked with him

But so did Lucifer when he fell from grace

And well, we all know what became of him

It's so easy to point the finger and say the devil made me do it

He may have planted the seed but it was me who took the bait

We're constantly saying we control our own fate

But when we reach a trail to which we don't want to relate 

We change our God to match our life

Rather than changing our life to match our God

Constantly shuffling him around like a deck of cards

Completely forgetting that the debt he paid on that cross was OURS!
