"Lord, Can i Get A Hand?"
  by Nilla


sober moments, lost thought.
this battle i've fought
already twice.
winning must be nice.
but no matter how i try to get right
i always lose my way, and the sad thing is that i search in broad daylight.
God, give me a sign, just a little motivation.
end this procrastination and fill me with an elation
only you can fill me with.
the depth and the width
of this hole
weighing on my soul
is a little too much.
i'm in a rush to keep up.
could you slow it down, or speed me up? put my pep
in my size six step?
i'm stuck with this emotion running as deep as a river, as freezing as dry ice.
rid me of my strifes
and i promise not to fail you too.
and, please, forgive me for the wrong that i've done or will do,
even if it was or is intentional.
i stay hittin' the confessional,
'cause it's in your eyes that i wanna look my best,
until befalls on me a peaceful rest.

"God, give me a sign, just a little motivation. end this procrastination and fill me with an elation only you can fill me with. the depth and the width of this hole weighing on my soul" man, Nilla this hit a point straight in my heart. funny how such a person can make you feel such emotions eh? weird how all the heart does is beat and keep us alive yet it loves? how does one even feel these emotions? remarkable huh?? ya.. the worlds a big mystery and we just live in it breathe and act ...

man Nillz mama...I've made this plea so many times and I'm still making it. and you know what that last part made me think of...how we as humans (i'm including myself here)...how we are so quick to ask for what we want or need and then afterwards we ask for forgiveness and say we are gonna change. *shrugs* we're so lopsided some times.
