Giving Tree
You say throw those hands
But why for your fans
You don't even know what that means
Those very people will spew you from their mouth like sardines
You use it to make yourself feel big and bad but you do not realize there is no glory to be had
Here's something you don't know about me
You see I use to fight
but not to prove my might
Or because someone stepped on my shoes
Let me give you some more news
I didn't fight because I thought it was cool
Some of you like to fight in school
You see I fought for my life
When someone else had the knife
Most of you will never known
But fighting is not a show
I've had hands gripped around my neck
And for what a paycheck
You see I use to be a dealer
Then one day I found my revealer
Who also was my healer
And all that anger inside of me
I finally told to flee
I got down on my knee
And asked lord what do you see
What is it inside of me
I just wanna agree
I'm starting from a seed but I'll grow into a tree
Now others are starting to see
Wondering what it is inside of me
I guess you can say I'm the real life giving tree
But I give because he gave to me
Now is time to unlock the church with our church key
We all start as a seed but we can grow into a tree
The world is watching you
The world is watching me
Now let's be the light
And show our Lord's might
When you say you can't
Remember that you can
Because he's inside of you
And he's inside of me
And when we use his name
The darkness has to flee
Stop messing with you
Stopping messing with me
Our lord protects from what we can not see
Ima let you do you but watch me do me
And for these chains around my wrist
Well my Lord has the key

This poem is only a part of my story. I know use my story to help others. I use to be a dealer then one day I found my revealer. Doesn't have to be about drugs some of us are a dealer just because we deal with this world more than we should.
