If I Could Go Back
• Written by ribs
The past has departed, I'm sad that it started/
If I could go back I'd have better targets/
to aim for..I know I'd definitely pray more
I'd find peace so I wouldn't have to chase war
..those days, I wasn't so afraid
I had no shame when I rose to compose fame
..writing early, getting up bright and early
Every thought, was all white and pearly/
I used to make a promise, said I would stay strong
Now I wonder, where have the days gone
They flew past me with new, fast wings
I didn't have time to take a few last swings
I hit rock bottom but just kept fallin
Try to keep climbing but misstep often
The top is where I reach for, even though I see more
darkness and depth than the bottom of the sea floor
I'm crawling forward, even thought my calling's forewarned
Calling for Lord, instead I'm losing more wars/
The sickness is sickening, I know because it sickens me
..making choices like Eve when she picked the tree/
Mercy is a concept, one I haven't got yet/
How can I believe that I've got paid off debts
weighing on my shoulders, heavier than boulders
Smoking and drinking is the way to hold me over
