Why am i like thisA Poem by David Elijahjunethird2018. a rap and a prayer.
I've been feeling like i'm not human as of late.
Don't talk to anybody used to have a lot to say. And if i'm being honest i've forgotten how to pray. I don't feel a thing and i'm about to graduate. Am i numb to the spirit am i dumb in my faith? Is my life just a facade a fake image i portray? Am i recognized by God didn't he design my face? 'Cause i don't feel it God despite knowledge of Your grace. Every time i hear Your words i've been quick to fall asleep. Every time i go to church all i wanna do is leave. Every time i try to turn i turn on the incognito see But how can i be doing that when i choose to believe In Your promises. the opposite of what grabs my attention. There's problems in these office walls that i choose not to mention. My eyes demand to be pleased like i need it to survive. God i hope you understand that i don't want this life. I could fill a backpack with excuses not to go. I can hear the laugh track 'cause my life is just for show. You might feel differently about my purpose yea i know But i'm my biggest enemy and i can't stand him anymore. I always put off trying to change because i know i won't. Like maybe when i'm hydrated i'll begin to grow. For now i might be ill-fated to ease my head with every vice. Maybe that's why my cross faded no concern has crossed my mind.
