Hope by Chaquana Muhammad Townsend
I've lost hope; hope has escaped my soul
I DON'T know where to go or where to turn
Maybe I must accept my deficiency
Because this deficiency has got a hold on me
And I seriously need some peace
My chest aches and my body hurts
My body yearns for rest
I am such a jerk, living as if I am in control
When the reality is I never will be
A part of me operates as if I am
Man, this operation and controlling has got me exhausted
Deserted, lost, broken, shattered, grasping for air
I am in such despair
Come rescue me, come rescue me from me so that I could see you
Please, save me from myself
My death has been bothersome and I am ready to live
Breath life into this specimen
Breathe life into me all over again
Jesus, I am dying to be free
Free to love you and me and everybody
Don't you see the hurt, pain, and frustration
See, I need you to save the day
Hero, you are my hero but at times you seem to be taking so long
I'm losing hope; the battle is too much to bear; I'm scared
Breath into my nostrils, bring life again to my dead heart
Give me a brand new start
A new life, new joy, give me you not me
Because me has got me EMPTY, VOID,and DISTRAUGHT
Give me all of you for that is enough for me
YOU are my only HOPE!
