I remember the time when I look at people differently,
So many thoughts crossed my mind as I judge them outwardly,
I said to myself,"lucky you are, you're not like them."
Feeling like I can able to stand.
Time passes when things started to change,
Temptations knock on my door as a dog barking my name,
I tried covering my ears but I still hear loud and clear,
'cause my hands are little,not enough to cover these ears.
Resisting was hard no matter what I tried,
I thought of kicking the dog and beat it with a log,
But when I opened the door,I found it nowhere,
Thinking it's gone, I plan to go back inside.
Soon I realized the door was already shut,
I couldn't open or push it with a force.
When I looked back, there's the dog coming, ready to eat me alive.
And at his back were the people whom I judged.
My strength has failed and my mind lost its peace.
Feeling like I wasn't at ease.
I thought it was a dream but it wasn't.
It's a sad reality I couldn't accept.
When I realized the things I've done,
I couldn't change 'cause the damage has already done,
My life has never been the same again,
Nor could I reverse the past to correct my name.
Years passed of prayer and tears,
I thank the Lord for erasing those fears,
Little by little, I accept what it has been,
I thank the Lord for the forgiveness of my sins.
