You never know when life is gonna change

When a test is placed in front of your face

You never know what hides on the next page

Whether this test is changed into a race

What you do know is your will to succeed

Your drive to climb that mountain that's so high

Your faith is that of a small mustard seed

And you just need to say that one good bye

To stand up against the demons of past

Make a choice, let those prayers roll down your face

I promise you it doesn't mean you're last

The title King or Queen is on your place

Only if you make that choice of a heart

And chose to run to God's loving embrace

"You know you’re a writer if your friend tells you a heartbreaking story and your first reaction is – wow, that would make an incredible plot for a novel. You know you’re a smart writer if you manage to keep that reaction to yourself."
