When it all boils down.. do we have nothing? Are all our hopes, hopeless? Our Faith, faithless? Our beliefs, void? Every day we rise up to the challenge of living, We go about our daily activities, With fear in our hearts that one day soon we might breathe our last. And in our life time, We watch someone we love get snatched by the cold hands of death, We watch everything we ever knew and love get taken from us,

And We’re told “it happened for a reason” We carry that grief in our hearts And try to find something to make us feel better We turn to religion in hopes that it’ll fill up that void We turn to drugs in hopes it’ll make us forget Overtime the grief turns to pain Pain that runs so deep It becomes anger and resentment Especially towards our maker. We still search for something to believe in all through the hurt, The pain, and haze of that fiery anger, We just want to know “why?”
