If you sit in melancholy
Watching others act loved and holy
Asking why your fate is so twisted
Just get to know all I am
And it will move you
II
From the stakes of the unwanted
To the stables of the haunted
From the oven of the hated
To the hell of penury
Through to the dawn of my breakthrough
Just get to know me
And I will move you
III
I’ve come to trust the process
Though I cried and cursed
I’ve come to love the process
Though I felt tortured and at a point, asked for a reverse
I’ve come to believe in the process
Though life’s hardships dangled death in front of my life
Forget the dark clouds which dim your sky and get to know me
I’ll move you
IV
I’ll move you
I’ll so move you
I’ll so move you to shed the clothes of hurts
…to put on the robe of hope
The beginning of every great life is challenging
All one needs is determination and hard work
And a future will push gratefulness on a past
Which rusts with its horrors
Under the brightness of your star

Change some of the words and yu could be talking about God! I hope things are well there and COVID is not as bad as it is here in the U.S. 🙂

Things are okay here. We’re in the 3rd wave but people are not taking it seriously. We’re not that affected like the US but our death rate has soared. How are you coping?

I’m getting my third dose soon. Other than that just stayin gin the house and away from people. It’s to risky to get around other people. Only 50% of people in the U.S. are vaccinated. What the hell is wrong with people? Vaccination rates there are proably much higher than here! Take care. 🙂

It is difficult to even get the vaccine here but people are skeptical of the vaccination because of all the talks going around. Do take care and honour the protocol. USA has it tough but time will heal us all.
