The Kick

Shook out of a devastating dream A terrorizing tale where I fell away with ease In deep like a scene within a scene It was as me within a legion Of demons on a leash I couldn't wake up I tried all the tricks Pinched myself, closed my eyes Couldn't find a fix Momentary bliss A veil of ignorance Led to soul inflicted wounds So impaled by sick intent But then came the kick The drop was so unsettling But it gave the lift To perceive the death in me A reaper with the sift But I had a legacy I wouldn't forfeit There was no escape My problems had to be faced Not just get erased Death the after taste More than a mistake I would call it a waste But the feeling of redemption It can never be replaced Wait This is a second chance romance Grace, faith, hope came close like a slow dance Put a thorn into my side so I'd know The glory isn't mine I don't boast In my own hands Programmed to respond to the notes That He sung over my soul dozing off but He spoke I awoke I awoke now the dark is revoked He opened up my closed throat Now I'm swallowing hope And you know the funeral here is temporary I really come alive when the flesh is getting buried From a felon to interstellar because I'm living very Far outta the world that want me in a cemetery  Been alive don't minimize the call That sent the light of God Within me I evolved Any time I drift inside the fog He gives me eyes to walk Cus' bigger sights involved Faith step say less I stay kept I can't rest flesh want death for a pay check Slumber for my soul put me into the matrix I don't know what's real till the realist awake yes Fast asleep My enemies they laughed at me I needed a kick A wake up I was sick In a coma lying stiff You ever look into the eyes Of the one that you almost killed Not wanting to be forgiven But wanting them to be filled Not wanting to see a victim But wanting them to be still Not wanting the interference Of all the poison you spilled Woke up in Amarillo with a long drive home Praised God for a life that was not my own Nightmare collapsed every prop got thrown Landed on a solid rock you can't knock this stone Now I have sight of the ditch that I dug myself Was a suicidal offense I wanted nobodies help See that Kick provided the glimpse And then uncovered the stealth So now I am fighting the drift Under the Son there is health The breath of God was the Kick That woke me up from the drift Breathe This was the kick That woke me from up the drift Breathe This was the Kick Now I know why I exist Breathe This was the Kick That woke me from up the drift Breathe This was the Kick Now I know why I exist Breathe
