I am just a man filled with scars. I am just a man filled with scars. Scars that run deep in this tattooed body. I was just a child. An innocent child searching for love, I was searching for love. Why did you destroy our lives? (crescendo) Why wasn’t I worthy of your love? (decrescendo) Without a man to show me how to be someone in life. I grew up with hatred in my heart. Having flash backs of horror. I cried so much, I’ve felt like shit all my life. Every child has there father for a hero. Me. I was scared of mine. And because of that… I’m questioning myself everyday, why did my father hate me so much? We were your family. We didn’t deserve all the hate, and all the violence. I grew up with a loveless father. I know its harsh, but I hoped to see you six feet deep, no tombstone, no memory, I hoped to see you die, I hardly saw your face, and when I did Everyday of my life I hated you so much. You wrecked the lives of my brother and sister. You broke my moms heart. My whole life I’ve had anger toward you, father. But tonight Dad, I forgive you. For everything you’ve done to us. (all the pain) I’m praying that one day you find the love I have found in Christ. The grace that forgives and restores. Im just a man filled with scars. Broken hearted but restored by grace.

Desires 01:23
So much hatred against myself. Holding me back, holding me down. As I try to overcome the anxiety in my life, I refuse to be manipulated by my desires. The only things they have brought to my life are regrets. I keep doing the same mistakes over and over again there is no one to blame but me. There is no one else to blame. I wish forgiving could come with forgetting. Will I ever forgive myself for what I’ve done? I wish forgiving could come with forgetting. Will I ever forgive myself for what I’ve done? I keep doing the same mistakes over and over again There is no one else to blame. I keep doing the same mistakes over and over again. No one else to blame. Do you still love me as much as the one I used to be? Help me.

Sinking 04:12
When all is over. The oppression has left but a familiar regret fills its place. The father of my heart longs for the love of the son. The prodigal son of remorse has come home, he’s gonna take, he’s gonna take, the place of the temptation. This is not love. I can already hear the taunts, oh the mockery. He knows my feet will sink back Into the comfort of fleeting lust. Despite my distress. Despite my distress. I can feel him overtaking me. I can feel its getting worse. I can feel him overtaking me. I can feel its getting worse. The poisonous lies of the venomous snake I’m convinced I should hate myself. He knows that Im not strong enough on my own and he exploits me like a child. Oh, what a child I am. A son of the living God. A son of the light. The light will burn the mask from your face as your smile fades to a scream. In the name of Christ you are defeated. But the game isn’t over. It never will be. Not until my father takes me home. Till then I will fall and rise again and again Till then I will keep telling you how my father is greater than the grave. Greater than the sin you’ve used to cripple me. My Jesus is the Father of Forgiveness. My father of forgiveness. I can feel the sinking claws open up the scars that never really healed. When I look back his proposition has me sliding back just a little bit faster. Don’t let me slip any further. Any further. You really aren’t ever that far so let me, so let me feel you. Let me feel the love I really long for.

I fell again tonight but this time the fall was deeper, deeper, deeper. I fell again tonight but this time the fall was deeper, how did I get here! Everyone carries a burden, I’m sick of mine, How did I get here. Everyone carries a burden - my life is one mistake after another. I constantly spit in your face. And in return, you offer me your hands. Do your hands ever get heavy, from my sin, that fills them? I have lived with mine for far to long. I have lived with mine for far to long. I have lived with mine for far to long. I have lived with miiiiiinnne, (for far to long) A daily battle, that has been lost so many times, so many times they tear me away from you. These pictures, that soil my heart, they tear me away from you. Pictures that every time drive those nails deeper! Pictures that every time drive those nails deeper! Deeper into your hands and feet. Deeper into your hands and feet. But this time, it was different. Disappointment shame, evaporating pleasures. Disappointment shame, evaporating pleasures. Disappointment shame, evaporating, PLEASURES. I went further than the pictures, and what hurts the most. The look, the look on your face as you watched me. My eyes degrading the body. God I fell. Giving away the only gift I could offer someone. To someone I did not know. What have I done. Such a small pleasure compared to….. The weight on my shoulders. I let my guard down. Everything was going well. What have I done. What have I done.

Dead Horse 02:39
I know a man. He tells me often that he sees no hope. Nothing greater in his future. He Says. “The fantasy of taking my own life, seems easier than, searching, for it in things that die, like I do in my dreams.” The desperate soul of a dying man. The need to feel - no hope, no life. Deaths seems the only way out to end a life of nothing at all. Loving family, loving friends, no abuse, no neglect. What he has, many can only dream of. He tells me, he tells me he has no hope, he has no clue why. The lack of hope in him is greater than the loss of the blood. Out of him. The loss of blood. Out of him. This is what he tells. Head long into the den of his demons. Old friends, when was the last time you tried to take my life. Its only been a few hours. This is what he tells me. Beaten and bruised, by his own mind. Head long into the den of old friends. When was the last you tried to take my life. Its only been a little while. Beaten and bruised, by his own mind. Defined by failures. He Magnifies the festering wound on his heart, body and mind. God help him! Depression can kill any ones self worth! This is me! This is me! I feel like a failure, I don’t I know why. The life I breath out everyday is a gift like no other! Every person has unimaginable worth and value.

The lost, the unloved, the found, the loved. The lost, the unloved, the found, the loved. Our lives represent these lines. Crooked minds, we’re trying for straight lines. Put your best foot forward. Every one of you. Just watch where you step. All it takes is one misstep and you’re sliding back. But one who makes no mistakes makes nothing at all. So in the end its not the years in our lives but the life we’ve had in them. So why do we keep playing these mindless mind games? We walk crooked paths hoping to find rest. The circle of insanity. We try the same things in hopes of change. Our lives are poured carelessly onto the ground. Never to be gathered up again. When we think we’ve found home its drains away. Where is the life we’ve lost in living? Feels more like dying to me Always on the mend, Always on the downfall. Rebuild with bloody hands. What bricks we have. Become the cornerstone. Become the foundation. All seems to slow down, peace found, hope released, in the warmth of a love, the warmth of a loving father. He’s all we have.
