God Flame
Grass green, am just on the other side of it
No scenic route, on my way, staying frosty lit
Got a little jammed in the draughts and the floods
Kept my gusto much through overwhelming odds
And when life be playing bullseyes with some arrows and daggers
I will be pushing hard to break the planes and turn the corners
I will brave the storm, trusting on God to flame my dawn
'Promise to stay afloat when the real hold me down.
