Keep the Faith

Ok, I decided to create ME…so…this is me….At 22 I first heard this song and it’s been by my side for 15 years. It’s got me through some shit….the lyrics say it all. There are many sides to me. I’m not religious but I have faith…..I have a wicked side, I can show love and compassion but, yes, there’s an edge and yes, there’s a little attitude…...lol. I hope you like…..

Mother mother tell your children that their time has just begun
I have suffered for my anger there are wars that cant be won
Father father please believe me I am laying down my guns
I am broken like an arrow
Forgive me, Forgive your wayward son
Everybody needs somebody to love
Everybody needs somebody to hate
Everybodys bitching cause they cant get enough
And its hard to hold on when theres no one to lean on
Faith: you know youre gonna live thru the rain
Lord you got to keep the faith
Faith: dont let your love turn to hate
Right now we got to keep the faith
Tell me baby when I hurt you do you keep it all inside
Do you tell me all’s forgiven and just hide behind your pride
Everybody needs somebody to love
Everybody needs somebody to hate
Everybodys bleeding cause the times are tough
Well its hard to be strong when theres no one to dream on
Faith: you know youre gonna live thru the rain
Lord you got to keep the faith
Don’t you know it’s never too late
Right now you got to keep the faith
Faith: dont let your love turn to hate
Right now we got to keep the faith
Walking in the footsteps of societys lies
I dont like what I see no more sometimes I wish that I was blind
Sometimes I wait forever to stand out in the rain
So no one sees me cryin trying to wash away the pain
Mother father
Theres things I’ve done I cant erase
Every night we fall from grace
Its hard with the world in your face
Trying to hold on, trying to hold on

    I think closer inspection of your work, enlocks the secrets to…taking a better look. I apologise for my ignorance yesterday, just when you see serenity prayer, you don’t expect anything after it, but its fucking great well done mate.

    I know what you mean, reputations must be kept!!
    or all this change could turn against us,
    and all but the intelligent will be left to wander,
    and cry, screaming, “You burnt it, you burnt it all to hell!”

    lol, but i know what you mean, i guess you like the tribal life?

    EXCELLENT!! I try to write about how the nature that has been taken from man, and the way religion has took life away from the old believers like the indian tribes and many others, you should read, Indians Wolf, its an old one, but you might appreciate it. ; )
