The Blues...


At three o’clock in the morning I found myself scratching this out of my head
I had to find a way to write it so that it wasn’t so red
So I put it to some music and this is what BLEED…

As I watch my mom fight the fight that so many lose
I catch myself singing the blues
Trying to figure out how this pain keeps finding its way…
Into our homes,
Into our bones
As I watch her fight to keep tonight’s supper down
I find myself asking God “why so many of us got to suffer”
NOW…
It’s not as if we wished for this
Thing or expects it to seep through
We just find ourselves
Finding it in our sleep
It’s so hard not to weep
 But as we see them suffer we began to REALIZE
That weeping won’t make this MINIMIZE
It only MAGNETIZE
Taking it from something we thought so simple to something BIG                                                       
We find ourselves letting it take our dreams
Cause we’re so busy focusing on what’s so SUPREME
LIFE…right now is our focus
But if we DON’T take the time to let this PROVOKE us
We’ll NEVER find a cure and life will NEVER be so pure
 Cause we’ll find ourselves
LOST in the RAIN
DROWNING in our PAIN
As we watch so many fight the fight only to LOSE
Cause we STEADY singing the same old BLUES


PLEASE Donate to find a CURE!!
