Keep on Living

It was quite the journey

The joy and the pain of the learning

Nothing the same could drive you insane

The way that the pages are turning

You go through deconstruction

Life don't come with instructions

All that could happen

Faith and action had to reimagine

The story before

The faith that you held don't work no more

The one in the needs

The word and the deeds

And all you believe

When you were so sure

A part of you knows

With all of your soul

You will be lying if you deny

Your love for Judah's Lion

What wеre you wanting?

Where wеre you going?

What did you learn?

How were you growing?

Was it all you hope for?

Was it what you dreamed?

Was it all worth it?

You tell me

Yeah

Tell the truth, dog

Some of it still ring True

I know

Quite the journey, bro

Learn to earn it

Hold it all to fight for the peace

Moms was finna leave Pops right before she gave birth to me

God spoke to her

Changed her whole world

Don't move back to the East

Whether it's famine or feast

Find that new life lease

So blessed is she who heart was dead set on that pilgrimage

Depression was pressing near

But she wouldn't let it kill the kids

Faith really got its benefits

Nothing like community membership

One thing she would always say is nothing God do go to waste, y'all

What were you wanting?

Where are you going?

What did you learn?

How were you growing?

Was it all you hope for?

Was it what you dreamed?

Was it all worth it?

You tell me

Yeah, yeah

Keep on living (Keep on living )

It was quite the journey

And I often imagine present me being equal parts in awe and irritated by future me

I imagine future me being patient

Still enjoying slight pauses between breaths

Consistent

Continually asking me the same question

The question I won't understand until I am him

He, we sit at the close of every day

With the eyes of an ocean of contentment

And ask me as his custom

So, What have you unlearned today?
