Thrive

Everyday is a test of my faith Building back up from my unkept ways Here, on Earth, where suffering pays your fare to stay And when we're gone they'll call to us from way beyond In and out, like a torus Same flesh, bones, but they feel foreign I'm still mourning when I wake up Just died to the body before this Still bent on keeping me slave, but I'm focused on what's important I'm focused on what's important Back in this place again Drowning in shame and shadows of mistakes I did I know a heavy price comes from me wasting gifts Fear I won't feel love, grace again Flawed man, woman, I relate to them Judgement, the same thing as self-hatred We're all human, conditioning for a race that has no finishing And when we're gone, I know they learn from all our wrongs In and out, like a torus Same flesh, bones, but they feel foreign I'm still mourning when I wake up Just died to the body before this Still bent on keeping me slave, but I'm focused on what's important I'm focused on what's important
