Celestrial Plight

We were sinners

That still ain’t stop God

And we prayed and we prayed for a better life

But we were too involved.

We were sinners

But that still didn’t stop God

Each night we called on him to end all this Not knowing exactly where we started

Forgiveness was unfamiliar 

Well, because we were sinners

Who couldn’t tell the difference 

Between pois and poison

With where we are and where we belong.

We were puzzles short a few pieces

We never really knew until we were near completion

We were stars in a galaxy that didn’t care enough to follow us

Is a star still a star when the planets pick their own direction?

When our parents made us aware of our misdirection

We became sinners, yes

But that still ain’t stop God

We reached for terrestrial lights

Because we failed in comparison to that kind of bright

and when we touched it, we laughed with scorched hands

We left dust trails everywhere we traveled as if to say “we were here”

Where ever here was…

We moved on

Letting lightyears pass us by 

We drift along

Following the darkness to a home
