Heart Growing Cold, With Burning Desire

---

Heart of goldYet it must foldGrowing colder As I grow older

Wear me down Yet I still turn aroundIn my youthI must find truth

Focusing now on how to surviveJust staying alive, but wanting to thriveYet the "game" is created, to live day by dayGrowing tired of this, so easily swayed

So now here I am, this power I craveWanting to escape, thinking I'll be savedKnowing in my heart that this is a lieThe truth comes from movements, that will never die

Struggling now, between two ideasShall I choose power or shall I choose strengthTruth comes from self, that's deep withinside Power come from territory, that's conquered now hide

I can have both, created my waySharing with others, needing no preyAbundance is here, create value for others Then I will be blessed, by my sisters and brothers

Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy.-Matthew 5:7
