Adversity
I have a disease that won't leave till I'm dead,
And you wonder why I won't get out of bed,
Should I pass it on to the woman that I wed
And to the children that we bred
Did God hear what I said
When I pled
Go ahead
Make me dead!
I just wanted it all to end
Where were you friend?
You had happiness to lend,
Letters of forgiveness to send
Were you just around the bend
Arms ready to embrace?
Can you take me from this place,
To wash the sadness from my face?
Are your shoes already laced
To participate in the race
To lift me up from disgrace?
Can you save me from me?
Can't you see
Love is free
Until you pass on a disease
So don't show up please!
You're not who I thought
What you brought
What you wrought
It's insane
Brings me pain
Ends my game
What am I sayin'?
I'll keep playin'
And keep prayin'
That you'll stop the spreading
That you'll stop regretting
I hope one day you can start letting.
Letting the good come with the bad
Letting go of all the sad
Stop the negativity and just be glad.
As for me
Well you see
Shit happens, you agree?
