Came a long way Went through the darkest tunnel trying to be the light to Maybe bring out all the other lost souls that I saw along the way Maybe that's why I'm attracted to darkness sometimes Not cause I wanna be Because I ought to be If we as salt of the earth, won't go to the forbidden places And offer help to the hopeless then, who will? So many broken So many open Susceptible to anything Just looking for everything I was lost Went too far gone down the path that The darkness began to consume me Instead of bringing others to the light My light was burning out I was fading Be careful around the ones that say they love you Love is a big word Instead pay more attention to the actions of those around you Jesus said to love our enemies Rightfully so I know broken souls can't always control the pain that they bring others For they know no better They know not what they do I pray we all see it through And change the earth with love I'm still learning how to And I'm not perfect I know this But I am righteous Not by my own being Not by my own will But through the Almight He is the light And through him I'll continue to shine And as I reach I'll help continue to pull out as many as I can Out of darkness like I was
