WALK IN YOUR SHOES


Yet me walk in your shoes so I can soften them up so your feet don't touch the hard ground you step on.
Let me take your heart and heal all the brokeness that I couldn't stop. Let me hold your hands when you wanna give up so I can  pull you back again and warm the coldness and show you love
Unconditional love from me.
Yet me take your shoes and give you strength in faith that I have within me.
Please take my wings so you can fly away I rather take your pain then not see you another day.
Take my eyes so you won't cry.
That your eyes are dry from all those tears you once cried.
Take my hands, TAKE MY HANDS hold your life in my hands.
Lord I know I'm not powerful like you but please I really won't give up on them.
I would die I don't know I will cry so they won't cry so they won't hurt.
I would make them take off there shoes of life and hand them to me so I can carry on there life .
So they can be set free.
No razor or any bullets  to try and rearranged what hard to be in.
But come to me for there second chance.
Not a day I don't pray for every soul who feels that they have no purpose and no love to be with me so I can give everyone love. CHANGE
what No doctor can See be a friend more then someone's family to care for them like It's just me and them on this earth.
For all those times when you wanted to be removed from the earth hand your shoes to me...
 Let me walk a mile so I can feel what a day feels like to be you. No hiding begin a text screen with a smiley face saying It's OK that family screaming, people dying and you want to run away..
call my name and I'll be there not like. Songs in a lyric but a beat in my heart that has a personal beat just for you .
How your live helps my life because it beats for you.
HAND me you face and let me kiss it and show you what a real smile feels like to smile and mean the happiness you might be in .
But no longer in crime but a place in time where you final can as for your shoes back again .
THANK YOU IMANI FOR GIVING ME THE STRENGTH TO STEP IN MY SHOES AGAIN.
NOW IMANI HAND ME YOUR SHOES...
